Every Landfill Tax return and filing is handled accurately.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to common questions skip hire operators, recycling centres, landfill managers and waste collection firms ask about accounting.
How does Landfill Tax work for operators?
Landfill Tax is charged by weight at two rates. The standard rate applies to most waste and the lower rate to inert materials. Operators register with HMRC and file quarterly.
What fleet allowances can waste businesses claim?
Skip lorries, refuse collection vehicles, hook loaders and tipper trucks qualify for the Annual Investment Allowance or full expensing. Weighbridge equipment and site infrastructure also attract capital allowances.
How is recycling revenue accounted for?
Income from selling sorted recyclable materials is standard-rated for VAT. Commodity prices fluctuate, so revenue can be volatile. Accurate tracking by material type helps forecast income and manage cashflow.
What is Land Remediation Relief?
Businesses cleaning up contaminated land can claim a 150% tax deduction on qualifying remediation expenditure. This applies to both corporation tax and income tax. Professional assessment of contamination is required.
How are site restoration costs treated?
Landfill operators must provision for long-term site aftercare and restoration. These provisions reduce taxable profits when recognised. Accurate estimation requires specialist environmental assessment alongside accounting input.
Can ABM support waste businesses nationwide?
Yes. ABM Chartered Accountants serves waste management businesses across England using secure cloud-based platforms, delivering specialist accounting to skip hire, recycling, collection and landfill operators.
