What waste exemptions does everyone have? I am about to apply for D7 to burn hedge and braken scrub ect from the farm, are there any others I should put down on the form at the same time? Is it worth bothering at all?

I put all the free ones on - old spray cans, ditch cleansings, crop residue, muck etc as well as yours, you may as well.

When it first came out I used to have about 20 tonnes of builders rubble dumped a year from a one-man band, I looked into a licence for that - it was about £4K (and needed planning permission)in year 1 and about £2.5K per year after that. It would cover the first 250,000 tonnes for that amount.
