Leicester is home to a wide range of businesses from family-run shops to large industrial facilities, and all of them produce commercial waste. What many business owners sometimes overlook is that handling waste incorrectly is not just a bad habit, it is a legal offence. UK legislation makes it clear: every organisation has a duty of care when it comes to the storage, collection, and disposal of its waste. Failing to comply can result in serious financial penalties, prosecution, and reputational damage. Local authorities and regulators are strict in enforcing these obligations, and businesses in Leicester cannot afford to ignore them. With the recent introduction of Simpler Recycling, which brings more consistency and transparency to recycling requirements, compliance has become an even more visible priority.
