Do waste pallet stacks need a different fire plan from saleable stock?
An England permitted waste site accepting combustible waste must consider Environment Agency fire-prevention requirements; waste wood pallets are within the guidance. Assess the actual waste operation and applicable permit. Do not copy a generic warehouse stack limit or assume a plan for one site authorises another.
What to check next
- Identify waste and non-waste stock on the site plan.
- Follow the approved plan and permit conditions.
