About Your Dsposal
A free, open data service helping you protect yourself from waste crime by connecting you with licensed Household Recycling Centres verified against the Environment Agency public register.
If you dispose of your waste through an unlicensed business, you are breaking the law.
You are legally responsible for the disposal of your waste. If your waste is found dumped, you can be fined or prosecuted — even if you've paid to have it taken away.
Your Dsposal is here to help.
By using our free directory of licensed waste companies, you can protect yourself from fines and prosecution. Your Dsposal helps you make the right decision by only sharing details of legal companies.

£1 billion+ annual cost
Waste crimes such as fly-tipping, illegal burning of waste and running illegal waste sites is estimated to cost the UK economy more than £1 billion a year.
Environmental damage
Dumping and burning of waste harms wildlife, pollutes land and water courses, and causes air pollution and climate change.
Rogue operators
Most fly-tipped waste has been dumped by a "man with a van" operating outside the law. They take your money, dump your waste illegally, and pocket all the proceeds.
You could be prosecuted
If your waste is found dumped, you can be fined or prosecuted, even if you’ve paid to have it taken away. We ensure you can only find licensed, legal waste companies here.
