Commercial Food Waste Derogation
The food waste regulations apply to businesses which are producing more than 50kg of food waste per week. If you are producing three 240 litre bins or one 1100 litre bin of General Waste per week, you are probably in this category and are required to comply by 1st July 2010
For those premises producing less food waste than this per week, there is a one-year temporary derogation available.
Please note after 1st July 2011, ALL premises where food is produced including those producing less than 50kg per week will be required to segregate food waste in a separate bin.
