Registration checklist
Step by step, so you register once and get it right.
Everything you need to register as a waste carrier and keep the right records, in plain English. No jargon, no legal degree, and ready to use in a day.
Lots of good tradespeople are. It is easy to put off, and the rules are spread over a lot of web pages. The kit puts them in one place.
“Do I need a licence?”
If you carry customers’ rubbish in England, yes: an upper tier waste carrier registration. We show you how to get it.
“A customer asked for a waste transfer note.”
Have one ready for every job. The template is in the kit, with the waste codes already filled in.
“What if I get fined?”
Carrying waste without registering can mean an unlimited fine. The checklist helps you get covered first.
After you buy, you type your details in once. We do the rest: your name, address, registration number and tip sites go on every form, and your renewal dates go into your phone.
Try it. Type below and watch the note fill in.

If you carry other people’s waste as part of a business in England, you need to be on the Environment Agency’s register as an upper tier waste carrier. The kit walks you through it step by step. It is not hard, and most people finish the form in under an hour.
On gov.uk it is £191.02 for a new upper tier registration and £130.25 to renew every three years (checked October 2026). That fee goes to the Environment Agency, not to us. Our kit helps you do it right the first time.
No. You register yourself on gov.uk, and the kit tells you exactly what to click and what to have ready. Then it gives you the paperwork to use on every job.
An 8-page PDF guide and Word templates you can edit: waste transfer note, customer quote and terms, risk assessment, disposal log and a yearly checklist. Add your business name and use them straight away.
No. It was written for sole traders and small firms. The templates are short, and the checklist tells you what to do each job, each month and each year.
You get 12 months of free updates when fees or rules change.
After you buy, you open a short form and type in your business name, address, registration number, insurance and the sites you tip at. It takes about five minutes. You press a button and your whole pack is made, with your details already on every document. Nothing you type is sent to us.
No. It is plain-English guidance written for traders. Always check the current rules on gov.uk, and ask an adviser if your situation is unusual.

Register, issue your first transfer note and get on with the work.
