Digital Waste Tracking starts 1 October

Waste

Westminster Waste Team

New UK digital waste tracking requirements are coming into effect from 1 October.

For now, the new digital obligations sit with the accepting site, rather than the waste producer or carrier.

For our customers, it’s simple: please continue to provide accurate information with every load, including your EWC codes, waste description, site and carrier details, and relevant duty-of-care documentation.

Good information in accurate digital records, fewer delays and smoother processing on site.

We’re updating our systems and will keep our customers informed as the requirements develop.
