Ask for a written reporting scope before relying on a waste service for compliance or certification. A collection invoice, a recycling estimate and an independently assured report are different documents.
Information to gather
- List the waste streams, sites and reporting framework you need to cover.
- Request destination records, measured weights and any tracking required for each classified stream.
- Agree who supplies the data, checks exceptions and signs off the report.
What to check before deciding
A broker's involvement does not transfer your business's waste duties. Do not describe a report as ISO-compliant, B Corp-ready or independently audited without checking the actual requirement and deliverable.
Victorian industrial waste must be classified and sent to a lawful receiving place. See EPA Victoria - Understand your waste obligations and duties.
