Agricultural Waste: 

We can collect agricultural waste from farmers or they can deliver to the Lampeter site. The waste is weighed in, on the weighbridge, and the farmer charged accordingly. Documentation is provided to the farmer to provide proof of appropriate disposal.

The following agricultural materials are accepted:

• Silage Wrap

• Silage sheeting

• Feed bags

• Fertilizer bags

• Crop Film

• Polytunnel Film

• Plastic Drums

• String/netting

The materials maybe contained within the same load but we ask that they are separated by type to enable easy disposal. We also ask that the materials are as clean as reasonably possible.

Alternatively you could hire a skip; this could be financially beneficial for the farmer, especially if the load is particularly large. 

Hazardous Agricultural Waste

Due to the potential harm of hazardous agricultural waste to human health and the environment, there are stricter controls on the disposal, recovery and movement of hazardous waste. These stricter controls apply to agricultural waste from 15 May 2007. This includes hazardous agricultural wastes such as fuel oil, lubricating oil, sheep dip and pesticides amongst others.

If you produce hazardous waste on your farm you will have to comply with the new rules on hazardous waste. It is good practice to minimise the amount of hazardous waste that you do produce.

If you produce hazardous waste you must:

• Know what hazardous waste you are producing - LAS Recycling can advise you on the correct form of disposal.

• Give it to someone that is authorised to handle it and make sure it is disposed of at an authorised site. LAS Recycling Ltd is licensed to dispose of various hazardous wastes. The waste should be cleaned and emptied as much as possible and the different types separated.

• Use a consignment note every time you / someone else remove hazardous waste from your farm.
