Hazardous?

Hazardous. Always treated as hazardous waste, whatever it contains.

In the List of Wastes a hazardous entry is marked with an asterisk on the code, for example 17 05 03*. [source]

The hazard note on each result is our own reading of the list, not Defra's classification. If you are not sure, check the source list or ask your waste carrier.

The six digit codes come from the List of Wastes, the Annex to Commission Decision 2000/532/EC as amended. The 2026 regulations point straight at it. [source]
