Safe and compliant waste transport

Choosing the right logistics partner for waste transport is essential to ensure compliance, efficiency, and cost control. Regulatory requirements can be complex, and any mistakes in permits or documentation can lead to costly delays or legal issues.

That is why working with an experienced and knowledgeable transport provider is crucial. At Begoma, we specialize in waste transport, ensuring that all shipments are handled safely and efficiently while meeting all national and international regulations.

Whether it’s waste from paper and plastic or other materials, we provide tailored logistics solutions to help clients navigate the complexities of waste transportation. 

Ensuring regulatory compliance

Cross-border waste transport is subject to strict legal requirements, and it is the exporter’s responsibility to obtain the necessary permits. Begoma supports clients by providing the required documentation and guidance to facilitate the application process. At the same time, we ensure that all transporters we work with hold the correct permits for handling and moving waste.

Key regulatory aspects include:

• The exporter must apply for a permit from the relevant environmental authority in the country of origin and secure approval from the receiving country.
• The carrier must have a valid permit to transport waste, including additional transit permits if the shipment passes through multiple countries.
• Certain types of waste may be classified as ADR (dangerous goods), requiring specialized transport solutions.

In Sweden, Naturvårdsverket oversees waste transport regulations, and similar authorities exist in other countries. Begoma ensures that every carrier we work with meets all legal and environmental requirements, reducing the risk of delays or compliance issues.

Tailored transport solutions for waste logistics

Transporting waste efficiently requires selecting the most suitable logistics setup. In most cases, road transport is the preferred method due to its flexibility and ability to provide direct deliveries.

However, for longer distances or larger shipments, intermodal transport—combining road and rail—or ferry transport, such as routes between Sweden and Germany, can be optimal choices.

By selecting the best transport mode for each shipment, we help clients optimize costs and efficiency while ensuring full compliance with regulations.

How Begoma supports waste transport

With extensive experience in waste logistics, Begoma offers a structured and reliable process to ensure smooth and compliant transportation. Once a client approaches us with a transport request, we begin by gathering detailed information about the type of waste, transport requirements, and necessary permits. Our process:

1. Verify that all carriers involved have the correct waste transport permits for their respective countries.
2. Ensure that transit permits are in place if the shipment passes through multiple countries.
3. Assist the client by providing the required documentation needed for their permit application.
4. Arrange the most efficient transport solution based on the type of waste, destination, and cost considerations.

By taking care of the logistics and compliance requirements, we allow our clients to focus on their core business while ensuring that their waste shipments are transported in full accordance with environmental regulations.
