Recycling charges reduction for Falkirk district traders
The price of recycling tipping permits have been reduced from £75 to £40 and allow small businesses that are run from home or from an owner’s vehicle to recycle larger quantities of certain materials. Vehicles can have a maximum gross weight of 3.5 tonnes.
Permits can be bought at Falkirk Council One Stop Shops and Advice Hubs and anyone using the service will have to produce a waste carrier’s license issued by SEPA.
