Environmental guidance for your business in Northern Ireland & Scotland
Treating & recycling waste vehicles
These vehicles must be depolluted before you can recycle them. De-pollution involves the safe removal of potentially dangerous components, including batteries and hydraulic fluids.
What you must do
Check if you need an approval, permit or licence
You can only carry out work on end-of-life vehicles if you are a licensed authorised treatment facility (ATF).
If you carry out work on end-of-life vehicles, you must have a waste management licence. You must also comply with your waste responsibilities.
