The Hazardous Waste Consignee Returns Report in BigChange is tailored to meet the requirements of the Environment Agency. This allows you to extract waste data from jobs over a 92 day period which can then be quickly copy and pasted for submission to the Enviornmental Agency.
The report's value lies in simplifying the process of quarterly waste returns, which would otherwise involve the cumbersome and tedious task of gathering individual job data for the quarter.
This report can be generated for a date range of up to 92 days and includes only hazardous waste data from jobs. For non-hazardous waste returns, please refer to the article on National Operators Waste Return Report.
- The report is accessible via the Analytics & Reporting section in the top menu.
