Guidelines on using Waste Consignment Notes

Waste Consignment Notes (WCN) are essential documents for the transportation of waste, ensuring it is managed responsibly. This guide details how to complete the WCN, which comes in three color forms: white, blue, and yellow. Waste Generators must fill out Sections A and B for both hazardous and non-hazardous waste, clearly identifying the waste type and any specific issues that may impact containment, transport, treatment, and disposal. Proper completion and processing of the WCN facilitate accountability and traceability, thereby demonstrating responsible waste management practices.

  3. White Blue Yellow The WCN comprises of 3 different colour forms

  4. The Waste Generator should complete Section A and B of the WCN

  5. A separate WCN should be completed for Hazardous and Non Hazardous Waste

  6. When completing the WCN it is important to clearly identify the waste type and any additional details such as problems the waste may present that will affect: • containment • transport • treatment • disposal

  7. When completing the WCN you must identify how you wish to receive the signed white WCN

  8. The Waste Transporter signs Section C of the WCN in the presence of the Waste Generator A1 Waste Co. Waste Transporter W TRANSPORTER

  9. The Waste Generator retains the yellow form and puts it into a WCN file. The Waste Transporter then takes the white and blue forms to the Waste Management Facility

  10. The blue WCN is retained at the Waste Management Facility At the Waste Management Facility the Waste Transporter gives both WCN (white and blue) to be signed. The Waste Management Facility checks that everything is in order, signs the WCN and then hands back the white WCN.

  11. The white WCN is then returned to the Waste Generator to show that the waste has been handled (or disposed) correctly This can be done in the following ways: • Waste Transporter returns the white WCN to • the waste generator

  12. the white WCN can be: Faxed to the Waste Generator

  13. the white WCN can be: sent by mail to the Waste Generator

  14. the white WCN can be: Sent monthly through monthly waste returns

  15. When the Waste Generator receives the white WCN it should be placed with the yellow WCN and placed in the WCN file.

  16. By using the WCN correctly you can now demonstrate that the waste has been handled appropriately.
