See it working for your businessYour materials. Your records.
Keep the whole
transaction together.
Tyres are counted at the garage, weighed at the gate and sold by the tonne after processing. Tyre recycling software needs to connect all three. Digital Tracking UK links the collection point, driver, tyre counts, received weight and waste documentation to the same record. Your office can then reconcile collections, outputs and invoices without rekeying.
- Tyre collections from garages, dealers and fleets
- Counts by tyre type plus weighbridge weights
- Waste transfer notes with EWC code 16 01 03
- Records of shred, crumb and baled tyre outputs

Every tyre, every grade
Built for the tyres
you actually collect.
Car & van
Passenger and light commercial tyres collected in bulk from garages and fast-fit centres.
Truck & bus
Heavy goods tyres, including casings that may be suitable for retreading.
Agricultural & OTR
Large tractor, plant and off-the-road tyres that need their own handling and pricing.
Motorcycle & specialist
Smaller volumes and mixed loads, recorded against the right customer and price.
From casing to crumb
Track what each load becomes.
Tyre recycling doesn’t end at the gate. Record what is reused, retreaded, baled or processed, so you can trace outputs back to the collections they came from.
- Part-worn and reusable tyres
- Retread casings
- Baled tyres
- Shred and tyre-derived fuel
- Rubber crumb and granulate
- Steel and textile fibre recovered from processing
UK tyre waste rules
Know the rules that apply to you.
A short summary for England. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so always check the official guidance.
Waste carrier registration
Businesses that transport waste tyres usually need to be registered as a waste carrier, broker or dealer.
GOV.UK guidanceDuty of care and transfer notes
Each transfer of waste tyres needs a written description, including the EWC code (16 01 03 for end-of-life tyres), and records you must keep.
GOV.UK guidancePermits and exemptions
Storing or treating tyres needs an environmental permit or a registered exemption, such as T8 for mechanically treating end-of-life tyres. Each one has limits.
GOV.UK guidanceDigital waste tracking
The UK’s phased move to digital waste tracking will affect how tyre movements are reported. Check what applies to your site.
GOV.UK guidanceTyre recycling questions
Tyre recycling software, explained.
What is tyre recycling software?
Tyre recycling software records the full life of a waste tyre load: who it came from, how many tyres of each type, the collection and transfer paperwork, the received weight and what it became after processing. It replaces paper collection sheets and separate spreadsheets.
Can we record tyre counts and weights together?
Yes. Garages often agree prices per tyre, while sites weigh by the tonne. Record both against the same collection so per-unit charges and weighbridge weights stay reconciled.
Does it handle waste transfer notes for tyres?
Waste documentation is linked to each collection, including the waste description and EWC code. Ask us to show the transfer note format and retention workflow you need in your demo.
Is it suitable for tyre collectors as well as processors?
The platform covers collection bookings, driver jobs, customer records, weighing and outputs. Collectors, processors and mixed operators can configure the parts they use.
Will software make us compliant?
Yes — Digital Tracking UK is built around UK compliance. Waste carrier registration, duty of care records, EWC codes and digital waste tracking reporting are handled as part of your everyday workflow, so your records stay complete and audit-ready.

Before you
make the switch.
Choosing recycling software is a working decision, not just a technology decision. Here are a few things worth knowing.
Ask us about your operationWhat is digital waste tracking?
Digital waste tracking is the UK government’s service for recording waste information electronically. Its rollout is phased by nation and operator type. It is distinct from simply creating a digital waste transfer note; check the current GOV.UK guidance for the reporting duties that apply to your site.
Who is Digital Tracking UK designed for?
The platform is designed for UK scrap yards, metal merchants, recycling businesses, waste carriers and collection teams. A demo can cover your materials, weighbridge, customer intake and office processes to establish the right fit.
Can the software connect to our weighbridge?
Weighbridge integration is part of the supplied product offering. Compatibility depends on your scale, indicator and connection. Share your hardware details when requesting a demo so we can confirm the integration scope.
Does it support the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013?
Yes. Seller identification, transaction evidence and cashless payment records are captured automatically at intake, giving you the complete record-keeping trail the Act requires — ready for inspection at any time.
Can we use Sage, Xero or QuickBooks?
Yes — Digital Tracking UK integrates two-way with Sage, Xero and QuickBooks. Invoices, customer records and payments flow automatically between the systems, and customer payments are sent straight through your accounting integration. No re-typing, no manual exports.
How much does recycling software cost?
Request a quote based on your sites, users, hardware and modules. We will discuss the scope in your demo rather than publish a price that may not match your operation.
