Trading and brokering with waste
Anyone who collects, transports, trades in or brokers non-hazardous waste on a commercial basis or as part of a business must give prior notice of such activity
Description
A notification under waste legislation pursuant to Section 53 of the Circular Economy Act (KrWG) is required if:
- the collection, transport, trading or brokering of non-hazardous waste is carried out on a commercial basis, or
- as a collector and transporter within the context of commercial enterprises, where the quantity of waste to be transported exceeds 20 tonnes in the case of non-hazardous waste and exceeds 2 tonnes in the case of hazardous waste ( Section 7(9) of the Notification and Authorisation Ordinance – AbfAEV )
Guidance on distinguishing between the two types of activities, as well as information on exemptions from the notification requirement, can be found under Links & Downloads.
If hazardous waste is collected, transported, traded or brokered on a commercial basis, a licence must generally be applied for in accordance with Section 54 of the Waste Management Act (KrWG).
