We have helped several small scale businesses apply for and obtain this environmental permit. The required documentation is much less than other permits and the EA fees are much reduced.
Units and yards must still install fire detection and fire suppression. Vehicles still need to be to be stored in firebays or racks. Depending on the size of the yard.

Please note before you call
- You will need a unit or yard to be able to apply
- It will take 5-10 months to get the permit. The EA will ask lots of questions re drainage, security etc
- These permit applications will involve a financial investment. These permits are needed for starting up a permanent business recycling ELV’s or metals. It will not be viable to try to obtain these permits to buy “one” Cat B vehicle or if you are an individual.
Paul helped us secure a standard rules permit for a metal recycling facility and worked with us through the planning and permitting process in a very professional manner
