FOR PERMITTED WASTE RECEIVERS IN ENGLAND
Report every receipt within two working days.
Without building your own DEFRA integration.
Mandatory digital receipt reporting starts in October 2026 for permitted receiving sites in England.
Is this for your site?
- A permitted waste transfer, treatment, or recycling site in England
- An independent operator receiving waste from other businesses
- An owner, site, operations, or compliance manager
Not the right fit: carriers that do not receive waste, exemptions-only sites, councils, or national groups with established enterprise systems.
From this page to ready in three steps.

THE SMALLEST COMPLETE RECEIVER JOURNEY
Use real receipts before you pay.
Record receiver details, add your permitted site, complete receipts, and keep the evidence in one workflow. Your first 20 completed movements are included; no card is needed to start.
Questions worth answering before you start.
When must a waste receipt be reported?
GOV.UK says that from October 2026, permitted or licensed receiving sites in England must report each receipt within two working days.
Is WTN DEFRA approved?
Yes. WTN matched all 14 of DEFRA's published Receipt-of-Waste scenarios and holds DEFRA production approval. That approves the software, not your site: reporting goes live once your organisation is registered with DEFRA and we connect it with you. WTN is not affiliated with DEFRA.
What does it cost?
Your first 20 completed movements are included with no card required. After that, the first team member is £29 per month, including unlimited movements after activation. Start before October and annual billing takes 50% off the first year, so £145 instead of £290 for a single seat.
Do I need a developer or a separate integration?
No. A manager connects the legal organisation, adds its receiving site, and completes receipts through the existing WTN workflow.
Test it with a real receipt.
Start free, connect the site, and decide from actual use—not another software demo.
