You must:
- minimise waste by doing everything you reasonably can to prevent, reuse, recycle or recover waste – get help to do this
- make sure all waste from your business is sorted and stored securely until it's collected
Home-based businesses
If you use part of your home to run your business, any waste from that part is business waste. You should not leave it out with your household bins.
Freeze your commercial waste collections
If your business is closed or unable to operate because of coronavirus, you can ask to freeze your commercial waste collections.
