We are an independent application checking and submission service. We are not the SEPA, GOV.UK or any government body. You can apply directly to SEPA yourself, usually for the statutory fee alone.
1. About these terms
These terms govern your use of this website and our services. By submitting an application or making a payment you accept these terms in full. If you do not accept them, please do not use the service.
2. What our service is
We collect your details, check your application for errors and omissions, and submit your waste carrier, broker and dealer registration to SEPA on your behalf. We provide customer support before and after submission and issue written confirmation of your order by email.
We do not issue registrations. Registrations are granted solely by SEPA, which retains full discretion over the outcome of any application.
3. Fees
The prices shown at checkout include both the statutory registration fee payable to the SEPA and our service fee. Current prices are:
| Item | New | Renewal |
|---|---|---|
| Waste Carrier (Single) (Upper Tier) | £395.00 | £245.00 |
| Waste Broker (Single) (Upper Tier) | £395.00 | £245.00 |
| Combined Carrier & Broker (Upper Tier) | £790.00 | £582.00 |
| Lower Tier Waste Licence Registration | £75.00 | Not required |
| Fast track processing | £15.00 | £15.00 |
| Additional registration card (each) | £10.00 | £10.00 |
Prices may change at any time. The price shown to you at the point of payment is the price that applies to your order.
4. Your responsibilities
- You must provide accurate, complete and up to date information.
- You must be authorised to apply on behalf of the business named in the application.
- You must disclose any relevant environmental offences or convictions where asked.
- You must tell us promptly if any details change before your application has been submitted.
- We are not responsible for a rejected, delayed or incorrect registration that results from inaccurate or incomplete information supplied by you.
5. Processing and timescales
We aim to check and submit applications within one working day of payment clearing, and within four working hours where fast track processing has been purchased. Timescales for SEPA to grant a registration are outside our control.
6. Payments
Payments are taken securely by card through our payment provider. We do not store your full card details. Your order is only processed once payment has been confirmed.
7. Cancellation and refunds
Your cancellation and refund rights are set out in our refund policy, which forms part of these terms.
8. Liability
Nothing in these terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded by law. Subject to that, our total liability to you in connection with your order is limited to the total amount you paid us for that order. We are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, including loss of profit, contracts or business opportunity.
9. Your data
We handle your personal information in line with our privacy policy.
10. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Scotland, and the Scottish courts have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute.
