Lower tier waste carrier registration

272,661 of the 418,521 registrations in England are lower tier — 65.1 %.

A lower tier registration covers a business moving its own waste, or one of the narrow exempt categories — a charity, a waste collection authority, or a carrier of animal by-products or mine waste. It is free and does not expire in the same way.
