Waste management and licensing

Waste activities and waste management businesses are guided by the Waste Management (Jersey) Law 2005. The law aims to protect people and the environment from the potentially polluting impacts of dealing with waste.

Jersey signed up to the Basel Convention. The convention is an international agreement committed to improving the management of all types of waste within Jersey and when wastes are exported from the Island.

Waste management licensing

Licensing is required if your business or you as an individual, store, handle, recover or dispose of waste, unless the waste activity is low risk. In which case your site may be exempt from the licensing.

Sites exempt from licensing must meet specific criteria of the Waste Management (Exemptions from Licensing) (Jersey) Order 2006.

Waste carrier registration

Your business must be registered as a waste carrier if you carry waste in a motor vehicle on a public road that is:

  • other people's hazardous or healthcare waste
  • your own asbestos waste from construction, demolition or excavation

As the registered waste carrier, it's your duty to make sure your employees are properly trained. You also need to make sure that any motor vehicle you use, or other equipment, is appropriately designed and maintained.

Exemptions

There are several exemptions from the requirements to register. For example, householders carrying their own hazardous waste to a lawful site for correct disposal. It's our policy not to insist that your business is registered where you transport your own hazardous or healthcare waste to a licensed or exempt site.

Export and import of waste (transfrontier shipments)

Transfrontier shipments are the exports and imports of wastes between countries and jurisdictions, for disposal or recovery.

There are different types of controls in place for transfrontier shipments depending on the type of wastes and what happens to it. Restrictions are in place for some waste types, and some wastes may be prohibited to move.

These controls are known as Green List Controls from Article 18 of the European Union Waste Shipments Regulation.

Green List Controls on europa.eu website

Before you can move any waste, you need to get consent from the exporting and importing jurisdiction's competent authority, where required.

Exceptions

You can move some non-hazardous wastes without prior consent from the authorities unless stricter controls are required by the importing country. For example:

  • the export of uncontaminated scrap metal from Jersey to England
  • the export of wastes destined for laboratory analysis. To assess either physical or chemical characteristics, or to determine their suitability for recovery or disposal operations

It's your responsibility to check all applicable requirements.
