How To Dispose Of Fertiliser & Pesticides Safely
Disposing of fertilisers and pesticides in the UK requires strict adherence to environmental regulations and safety procedures. At Collect and Recycle, we support farms, plant businesses, and garden centres with professional and compliant disposal services. This caters to both full or part-full containers of chemicals.
Whether you’re handling expired chemicals, damaged packaging, or surplus stock, it’s vital that these substances are treated as a hazardous type of waste. Improper disposal can lead to environmental contamination and consequences, which is why our service includes the provision of Hazardous Waste Consignment Notes (HWCNs). These documents ensure full traceability, transparency, and peace of mind that your waste is being handled safely and legally.
We also require a copy of the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS or SDS) for each product to ensure correct categorisation and handling. Once collected, your fertiliser and pesticide waste is transported to licensed treatment centres. With us, you can ensure your chemical waste is dealt with professionally and in line with regulations.
