Leicester Waste, Recycling, and Clean Streets

Useful tips to spot and report unlicensed waste carriers

Could you spot an unregistered waste carrier?

Waste collected by unregistered carriers often ends up dumped illegally, damaging the environment, and leaving you with a fine.

You can find licenced waste carriers in the EA’s register of waste carriers, brokers, and dealers here: https://environment.data.gov.uk/public-register/view/search-waste-carriers-brokers
