Waste transport in Europe is on the rise. Will DIWASS prove to be the missing piece of the jigsaw?
For several years now, Europe has been consistently tightening its requirements for the recycling and recovery of raw materials. In practice, this means one thing – the transport of waste within Europe will become increasingly important. More and more materials will be sent to recovery facilities outside the country, and the number of parties involved in the entire process will continue to grow. At the same time, a larger market means greater responsibility. After all, information must be exchanged efficiently between businesses and administrative bodies, and the movement of waste must be effectively monitored. This raises the question: is this precisely why the European Union is implementing the DIWASS system? In this article, we will take a broader look at the picture. We will consider the directions of development Europe is setting today and whether DIWASS can…

Eco Poland
The GIOŚ’s heightened vigilance is paying off. Illegal shipments are being turned back.
Polish authorities are becoming increasingly effective at tightening up the system for monitoring cross-border waste shipments. The latest example is an operation carried out by the National Revenue Administration and inspectors from the Chief Inspectorate for Environmental Protection. As a result of the operation, over 21 tonnes of illegally transported waste were returned to the country of origin. Contact us: FAILURE TO REGISTER WITH DIWASS CONSTITUTES ILLEGAL WASTE SHIPMENT!

The aluminium scrap crisis in the UK
The British recycling market is currently facing serious upheaval. The secondary raw materials sector is grappling with problems that are affecting the economy as a whole. A key piece of this puzzle is aluminium, which is in short supply in the official market. The current aluminium scrap crisis is destabilising existing supply chains. Local businesses are losing their steady access to this vital raw material. As a result, production costs are rising, which directly undermines the competitiveness of British factories on the international stage. The causes of the collapse in the aluminium scrap sector The main cause of the current situation is the sudden changes to export regulations. For years, the UK has been sending huge quantities of recyclable materials abroad. However, new trade restrictions and customs barriers have effectively halted…

The data in DIWASS does not match the documentation – what should I do?
Od 21 maja 2026 r. system DIWASS (Digital Waste Shipment System) jest obowiązkowym kanałem elektronicznej wymiany dokumentów w transgranicznym przemieszczaniu odpadów niebezpiecznych w UE (od stycznia 2027 również dla odpadów z tzw. listy zielonej). W modelu cyfrowym nie ma już „luk papierowych” – każda niezgodność między danymi w systemie a rzeczywistą dokumentacją zostawia ślad cyfrowy widoczny dla organów kontrolnych. Co zrobić, gdy dane w DIWASS nie zgadzają się z dokumentacją firmy? Najczęstsze rozbieżności danych w DIWASS W praktyce niezgodności dotyczą zwykle kilku obszarów: Korekta błędów – jak działać krok po kroku Konsekwencje niezgodności danych Ignorowanie rozbieżności to realne ryzyko. Niedokładne…
