Commercial waste
Under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 businesses have a duty of care for all their waste, including general rubbish and things that can be recycled. We can only provide free services for household waste collections.
Please
note that business rates do not cover refuse collection.

- Why has trade waste time banding been brought in when I have never heard of an issue with regard to fly-tipping in the shopping area?
- Who in the business community was consulted about the time bands and what times to use?
- I have just bought 150 bags from my supplier and they say they cannot collect during the time banding. What should I do?
- My waste collection firm uses black bags and have said they are not aware of the bag colour changes and will not issue me other bags. What can I do?
- My shop is on the red route. How can my waste collections take place during the allocated time bands?
- The 9am to 11am trade waste time band means the pavements will be restricted at a busy time with rubbish from dozens of shops. Why is this?
- My premises shut at 10 pm. If I leave my rubbish out between 9pm and 11pm, and it is not collected, how can I be held responsible and face a fine?
- My premises close at 6pm and my rubbish collections have been overnight. How do these trade waste time bandings help me?
- I have some private land outside my shop and have an A-sign which the council says I can have as it's my land. Are there any problems with me putting my rubbish bags there for collection?
- Where can I get more information about the trade waste time band scheme and its implementation?
