Trade waste disposal scheme
Please note: Trade waste cannot currently be accepted at Cannock Recycling Centre (05.12.24)
A van/trailer permit is not required for trade waste visitors.
We will only accept trade and commercial waste from businesses in Staffordshire. All trade visitors will need to provide a copy of their waste carriers licence and business address before disposing of waste.
How to apply for a waste carriers licence
To apply for a waste carriers licence, you will need to contact the Environment Agency on 0370 850 6506 or via their website.
You don’t need to apply for a trade waste permit or van permit. You must provide a copy of your waste carriers licence and business address to dispose of trade waste.
Please note: Although trade waste is currently accepted on 10 of our sites, we have the right to refuse waste at any time if we have insufficient capacity on site or members of the public are unable to dispose of their household waste due to the amount of trade waste being taken in. Priority will be given to members of public to dispose of their waste.
