waste carrier

[log supplier]

i was speaking to a mate the other day, and he said you must have a waste carriers licence, to sell on and transport logs....

our logs are bought in and prosessed on the farm....

just wondered if anyone else had heard this rumour????

Wonder how many pages this will last for?

Don't know the laws inerpretation, both my logs,and chips, are in my opinion a legitimate,valuable resource/product. not something to be dumped in landfill or taken to a reclamation {scrap}yard.

I suppose unprocessed timber from a job may be termed as waste, but then they hall wheat before milling !

This is the EA's stance on it, interpret it as you will.

That is it. It is only waste to your client but is money and a product to you, you take it away and work it to sell for money.

hasnt this been talked about at greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaat length before!

If log or brash is being removed from a site, in its unprocessed form i believe it is classed as waste and therefore a carriers licence is required...to be honest it is safe just to obtain one...however i am not sure about the movement of timber in a processed form.

i always thought logs that where bought in then prosessed where classed as a product????

 

i know its classed as waste if it was from a customers tree...

but theres that many rules and regs now,people dont know where they stand....
