Applies to England

Details
This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to have an environmental permit for a waste operation when washroom services companies and similar hygiene facilities store waste aerosol air freshener canisters (away from the site of production) before recovery elsewhere.
However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action if you do not comply with this legal requirement if you meet the requirements in the RPS.
The regulatory position does not apply to any other legal requirements.

You must keep records for 2 years and enter RPS 63 followed by the postcode of the receiving site in the permit field for consignee returns. You must not exceed a total storage volume of 1 cubic metre. We intend to withdraw this RPS by 30 April 2025. We have updated this RPS to the latest template.
