Why do rubbish collection companies need a license in London?
It is a legal requirement for rubbish removal companies to hold a license to be a waste carrier.
The requirement of the license falls under a legal document called Waste Duty of Care. It is the responsibility of the Rubbish Collection Company to have the correct code suited for their company. The code should be permitted for the types of waste that they are carrying.
Rubbish collection in London can be tricky to find a reliable company, one of which that has a licence to carry your waste, remember that if you use a company that do not, there is a possibility that they could fly tip, exposing your letters and personal information.

Really great service and friendly, 2 lads came to pick up all the garden waste from our house – saved so much headache vs taking it down to the tip ourselves.
Very prompt and efficient, they took everything, tidying after the kitchen waste. Will be using again and putting the name out there.
These guys came to our building site to remove at least 12 truck loads of waste including old restuarant goods and steel beams. Efficient and punctual.
