Waste Classification Reporting

All businesses producing or moving construction waste in the UK need a waste classification report (to WM3 Guidance) before it is collected, disposed of or recovered. MCM’s Waste Classification Reporting, following site sampling and testing, provides a breakdown on the waste material type (e.,g asbestos, contamination, waste classification, WAC test result if applicable), the chemical content and classifies the waste via HazWasteOnline.

Why do you need Waste Classification Reporting?

1. Legal Compliance: Reporting follows WM3 guidance and confirms waste status so that it can be properly classified and described on transfer or consignment notes.
2. Avoid Penalties: Clear, accurate waste description ensures compliance and avoids fines or audit failures for non- or misclassification
3. Confirms Route of Disposal: The report identifies hazardous/non-hazardous status of material, ensuring the correct route of disposal/remediation/acceptance at licensed facilities.
4. Reduces cost and risk: Helps identify best opportunities for re-use or recycling, lowering the detrimental environmental impact and avoiding unnecessary landfill charges.
