Controlled Waste Transfer Notes: Printed from £49 FREE DELIVERY**

A Controlled Waste Transfer Note (CWTN) is a statutory UK legal document used to record the transfer of non-hazardous commercial waste. Printed as a multi-part carbonless NCR form, it captures essential Duty of Care details to create an instant duplicate paper trail for waste producers, registered carriers, and disposers.

Mandated under Section 34 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990, the form legally records the waste description, containment method, and carrier registration numbers to prove environmental compliance. To satisfy UK audit regulations, all completed CWTN physical copies must be retained securely on file for a minimum of two years.
