We have already written about a Lithuanian haulier who paid a high price for knowingly taking a risk by carrying out illegal waste transports. However, there are companies that, tempted by the vision of profits, operate in the dark, not realising the need for proper authorisation. As a result, only the forwarding company profits, getting rid of the cargo and the responsibility, which is transferred to the carrier. Why do these situations keep recurring?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is Poland still the dustbin of Europe?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The claim that Poland is the dustbin of Europe has at one time appeared in public debate and in the media in connection with a problem which, it was claimed, was overwhelming the Polish authorities. However, such a generalisation is exaggerated. Indeed, the authorities have been taking action to counter the illegal practice - from tighter regulations<\/a>, to increasing the number of inspections at borders and waste treatment sites. However, the scale of the problem indicates that the challenge is still significant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Illegal transport of waste to Poland - reasons<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The fact that a particular waste shipment is illegal is more often due to ignorance than to intentional action. Despite the information campaigns and actions of the Polish government, foreign companies are still trying to bring waste into our country only on the basis of documents provided for in EU regulations. Some hauliers actually have no idea about the changes that have taken place in Poland after 2018. Others, however, count on luck, which most often ends with serious consequences. A Lithuanian haulier found this out, who admittedly had to bear the high costs of his decision, but with our help he will be able to carry out his next transport legally<\/a> and without fear. What prompts companies from the Baltic States to transport waste illegally to Poland?<\/p>\n\n\n
