BDS Byrne Waste Tracking
Client summary Recommended to you byyour consultant

Digital waste tracking for your site, set up for you.

Since 1 October 2026, permitted sites in England and Wales that receive waste have to report each load to Defra within two working days. Scotland starts on 1 January 2027 and DAERA say January 2027 for Northern Ireland. Byrne Waste Tracking is how you do it from the gate, and your consultant has suggested it for your site.

What it is

  • Log each load on a phone, tablet or computer at the gate. Nothing to install: it runs in the browser.
  • It remembers your carriers and usual wastes, so a repeat load is a few taps.
  • It sends each load to Defra automatically once you've linked your Defra account, and checks it against Defra's rules first.
  • Shows the due date on every load. It doesn't read a weighbridge: you type the weight from the ticket.

What it costs

Your priceyour consultant gives you your monthly price, and you see it before you pay anything 14 daysfree first, and there's no card to enter until you start it

A site in Scotland or Northern Ireland that joins before 1 January 2027 pays nothing until 1 January 2027. Scotland starts that day and DAERA say January 2027 for Northern Ireland.

Monthly, no contract. Every login at your site is included. You pay Byrne Digital Solutions direct.

Defra's own service charge, £26 a year per organisation, is separate and paid to Defra.

How setup works

  1. Your consultant sends you their own sign-up link.
  2. You make a free login with your email and type your permit number. The site fills itself in from the Environment Agency's register.
  3. You register with Defra and paste your Defra API code into the app.
  4. You log loads, and each one goes to Defra by itself. Your consultant can see your site's status.

Or your consultant sets it up for you, with your email on it, and you sign in to find it ready.

Good to know

  • Paper carries on alongside: transfer notes and consignment notes as now.
  • Problems are caught before they're sent.
  • Your records stay yours: Defra's own spreadsheet, or a download of every load, whenever you like.
  • Byrne Digital Solutions is listed on GOV.UK as a compatible software provider.
