Basic information
Disposal, i.e. recovery or disposal, including the collection and transportation of hazardous waste, is subject to a verification procedure under waste legislation. Waste producers as well as holders, transporters, collectors and disposers of hazardous waste are obliged to do so. Private households and small-scale producers who do not generate more than two tons of hazardous waste per year are exempt.
If the disposer is not approved for the privileged procedure and no proof of collection from a carrier can be used because more than 20 tons of waste is generated at the point of generation in the year, an officially confirmed proof of disposal is required.
