Yes. UK businesses are legally required to arrange and pay for their own commercial waste collection and disposal. You can’t use household bins or residential council collections for business waste. Instead, the law requires you to use a licensed waste carrier to collect and dispose of your waste correctly.
Every business also has a legal duty of care to store, handle and dispose of its waste responsibly. This includes keeping waste securely contained, using a licensed carrier and keeping waste transfer notes for at least two years as a record of each collection.

Our commercial waste collection services cover the main waste streams businesses produce:
General waste: Non-recyclable business waste collected at low prices, with an excellent, flexible and reliable service.
Dry mixed recycling (DMR): Clean, dry recyclable materials collected together in a single bin, saving time and storage space.
Food waste: Essential for restaurants, bars, cafés and any business producing food waste, which must be contained, collected promptly and disposed of legally.
Glass waste: Glass bottles and jars collected separately for recycling, supporting your legal obligations, your reputation and your environmental credentials.

Workplace recycling rules have tightened across the UK. In England, Simpler Recycling rules require businesses with 10 or more employees to separate dry recyclables and food waste from general waste, with micro-businesses following from 2027.
Wales and Scotland have their own workplace recycling regulations. Direct365 can help you set up the right combination of commercial waste and recycling collections to stay compliant.
