About Disposr

Removing the guesswork from waste disposal

Disposr was created to solve a simple but widespread problem:
People don’t know where waste is supposed to go and the consequences of getting it wrong can be serious.

From everyday household items to complex, regulated waste streams, disposal rules are fragmented, outdated, and often conflicting. Disposr exists to bring clarity, confidence and accountability to that process.

We help households, businesses, councils and industry identify the correct, safe and legal disposal pathway for almost any type of waste without relying on outdated PDFs, guesswork or generic advice.

Built on real-world experience

Disposr is grounded in hands-on experience across waste, recycling, transport, compliance and environmental regulation.

We understand how disposal works in practice, not just on paper:

  • What facilities can actually accept

  • What approvals or restrictions apply

  • What transport, handling or licensing is required

  • What mistakes commonly lead to compliance breaches or environmental harm

That experience sits behind every response we provide.

How Disposr works today & where it’s going

Right now, every enquiry submitted through Disposr is reviewed by an experienced waste professional.

Each response is tailored to:

  • The material or item

  • Quantity and condition

  • Location and local regulations

  • Available licensed facilities or service providers

As Disposr grows, common waste streams will be supported by intelligent, automated pathways, while complex or regulated materials will always retain expert oversight.

Accuracy, compliance and safety will never be compromised for speed.

    As Disposr develops automated pathways for common waste streams, complex or regulated materials will always have expert oversight.

  • Response times depend on the complexity of the item, but the goal is clear, actionable guidance without unnecessary delays.

    Urgent or higher-risk items are prioritised.

  • If something genuinely has no legal disposal pathway, Disposr will tell you and explain why rather than offering unsafe or non-compliant advice.

    Honest answers matter more than convenient ones.

  • No. Responsibility always sits with the waste holder.
    Disposr helps you understand and meet your obligations, not avoid them.

    Accuracy, compliance and safety are never compromised for speed.
