Barnet Times: "Barnet skip companies fear closure due to landfill tax increase"

Link to Barnet Times

"Skip hire companies in Barnet ... say the new landfill tax rate means they are being forced to pay more to tip waste than they can be expected to charge customers to shift it.

"Last Friday Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) announced waste transfer stations will now be charged £64 a tonne for inert material, such as dust and stones, rather than the previous lower rate of £2.50."
