Discuss Immersion heater element replacement. in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

As an aside, what do you do with all your rubbish that you generate from your work (not aimed just at yourself)?
I leave the waste S88T ---- their on the job like fluorescent tubes and fittings. if it is the customers I tell them its yours, if you want me to take it will cost ££££. I take it home and transfer to my rolls Royce and take it in to land fill skips that's two fingers up to home land security .
 
I also have the lower tier waste carrier licence advised to by my assessor. A local carpenter had no previous issues to drop off his own waste, until he had sign writing on his van...was banned from the site along with legal threats.

I think I might Van Wrap to disguise it as a car with "windows" ....so when they look in they will see empty seats I don't have....and maybe an immersion heater element that just lost its way.
 
For me all waste goes back to the office where we have suitable skips.

The exception being tubes which go to the bins at wholesalers.

Did you not read SparkyChicks #47. Different areas, might have different enforcement, but the same rules apply (England & Wales).
 
I found some of the attitudes and posts on this thread very hypocritical
What would be the point in making laws or regulations if no attempt was ever made to enforce those laws or regulations

The same ones on here bemoaning the councils trying to enforce the waste management regulations (designed to improve all our lives)they are the very same who grump and groan because their precious Part P ( electricians are a special breed) building regs section is not enforced :confused:
 
Agree with Des56 above.

Also, I remember the times many years ago when there weren't so many rules and regulations in place at the local tips. And normal householders could barely get in as they were always full of tradespeople in their transit vans dumping trade rubbish for free. Or should I say at the expense of the taxpayer.

Remember, your local 'tip' is a household waste centre.

I dont't agree with the way the law is written, hence I am no hypocrite. This is bureaucracy gone mad. The law could've been worded to avoid this ridiculous burden on small business and hit the fly tipping scum it's surely intended for.

However, after reading your opinions on numerous things on other threads I'm not sure our political views will ever align. We're going to have to agree to disagree with the methods to get towards what I'm sure are shared goals.

I don' give two hoots about your estimation of my posts or my political views :rolleyes: neither do I care or give a damn about agreeing with anything you post.
