Commercial Waste
Making life easier…
When you’re managing a commercial site and the waste you produce, it means enormous responsibility to ensure it’s disposed of correctly and therefore can be time consuming and confusing.
Legalities and legislations make life difficult and whilst you’re focussing on waste, you’re not focussing on your core business.
The Environmental Protection Act 1990 is an act of parliament that relates to the management of pollution and waste from industrial processes; be it building, dredging, demolition and much more. The Act is regarding issues that come from having waste on land, the management of this waste and also highlights that the relevant business producing the waste ensures it is handled safely and within the law. Failing to do so can result in fines and even imprisonment.
