In my industry, often enough, household occupants simply cannot dispose of their waste themselves. Therefore, they ask for my services as a commercial waste carrier and then they have to pay for my service alongside the tipping fee at a commercial waste centre, which not everybody can afford. Commercial waste carriers are not permitted to use council recycling centres.
More details
If it’s household waste I don’t see the problem in allowing commercial waste carriers to take household waste to council waste recylcing centres. As long as the centres are used respectfully and waste is organised in the correct skips etc. In my view this will massively reduce fly tipping and will also promote recycling. This will no doubt benefit the community along with the environment.
