Duty of care is a general concept dealing with responsibility.

In terms of waste, the laws states that you must take all reasonable steps to keep waste safe. If you give waste to someone else, you must be sure they are authorised to take it and transport, recycle or dispose of it safely. If you break this law you can be fined an unlimited amount.

It is vital that you choose a reputable company to handle your waste. Is is also important that you ensure your waste company has dealt with your waste responsibly and to ensure this you should carry out a duty of care audit. All the sites used by Astec are audited by ourselves. We can show what happened to any item we receive from you and provide documentary evidence to help you meeting your statutory and administrative obligations.
