## From the administrators' statement

The Company was incorporated on 10 September 1996 and commenced trading from Skip Yard, Furnace Hill, Clay Cross, Chesterfield S45 9NF The main activity of the business is skip hire and waste disposal, following an application in November 2005 to Derbyshire County Council to seek planning permission to operate a waste transfer station The application was successful and a Waste Management Licence was issued by the Environmental Agency

The Company operated a skip hire business with skips being delivered to both commercial and domestic customers within a ten mile radius of their base in Clay Cross, and operated eight commercial vehicles

The government introduced landfill tax in 1996 at £7 per tonne and increased the rate to £23 in 2009, this has continued to increase by £8 per tonne per year reaching £80 per tonne in 2014 and then £84.60 per tonne by 1 April 2016 The tax was introduced by the government to deter companies from landfilling waste. The Company manually sorted the waste collected in the skips into various waste streams, however this 1s very labour intensive and therefore incurs a high labour cost To assist with this the Company purchased a picking station in 2011 but it was never brought into use due to space restrictions on the land
