Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## UK Waste Carriers Register — New & Expiring Registrations Monitor Monitor the **Environment Agency's official Waste Carriers, Brokers & Dealers register** for England — the legal register every business that transports, brokers or deals in waste must appear on. Registration numbers look like `CBDU######` (upper tier) and `CBDL######` (lower tier). This actor turns the register into a clean, structured B2B trigger feed. ### What you can track - **New registrations (last N days)** — every newly registered waste carrier is a **brand-new or newly formalised business** in waste, skip hire, house clearance, grab hire, man-and-van, construction or demolition. ~250 new registrations appear every day. - **Expiring soon (next N days)** — upper-tier registrations last 3 years and must be renewed. Businesses approaching expiry are **renewal and compliance leads**. - **Recently lapsed (last N days)** — registrations whose expiry date has just passed. These businesses may be **trading illegally without realising** — a perfect compliance-service conversation opener. - **Search the register** — look up any business by name, address/postcode, or registration number. ### Who uses this data - **Equipment & vehicle suppliers** — new carriers need skips, grab lorries, tippers, balers, PPE and weighbridge kit; catch them the week they register - **Insurance brokers** — every new waste carrier needs fleet, liability and environmental insurance - **Waste management software & compliance platforms** — new registrants are greenfield accounts with no incumbent supplier - **Skip hire & waste brokerages** — map new competitors and potential subcontractors by area - **Compliance & training providers** — expiring and lapsed registrations are warm, time-sensitive outreach - **Procurement & risk teams** — instant **supplier verification**: feed in a company name and confirm it is legally allowed to carry your waste (duty-of-care checks) ### What you get Flat, export-ready records: | Field | Example | |---|---| | `registrationNumber` | CBDU648033 | | `businessName` | PAVERPRINT DRIVEWAYS & PATIOS LIMITED | | `tradingName` | AJ Skips | | `companyNumber` | 04751916 | | `applicantType` | Company / Sole trader / Partnership | | `tier` | Upper / Lower | | `registrationType` | Carrier Dealer / Carrier, Broker, Dealer | | `registrationDate` | 2026-07-14 | | `expiryDate` | 2029-07-14 (lower tier never expires) | | `status` | Active / Expired / Active (does not expire) | | `daysToExpiry` | 1093 | | `address` / `locality` / `postcode` | LADDS GARDEN VILLAGE, BATH ROAD, READING / READING / RG10 9SB | | `registerUrl` | Direct link to the official register entry | `companyNumber` (where present) joins straight onto Companies House for directors, accounts and contact enrichment. ### Typical usage - **Weekly new-business feed:** mode `newRegistrations`, `daysBack` 7, [schedule](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules) weekly — every new waste business in England, in your inbox - **Renewal pipeline:** mode `expiringSoon`, `expiringWithinDays` 60, filter `regime` = upper-tier - **Compliance sweep:** mode `recentlyLapsed`, `daysBack` 30 - **Territory watch:** any mode + `addressSearch` = your town or postcode area - **Verify a supplier:** mode `search`, `nameSearch` or `numberSearch` = the company you're checking No API key, no login — the Environment Agency's public register API is free and official. ### Export & integrations Results land in an Apify dataset — export **CSV, Excel, JSON**, or connect Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, Slack, and webhooks via Apify integrations. ### Data source & fair use Data comes from the [Environment Agency Public Registers](https://environment.data.gov.uk/public-register/view/search-waste-carriers-brokers) service and is published under the Environment Agency's conditional licence / Open Government Licence framework. This register covers **England** (Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland run separate schemes). This actor is not affiliated with the Environment Agency. It queries the official API politely (rate-limited, no scraping of the website itself) and registrations are public record by law. --- **Need something more custom?** Waste carrier registrations cross-referenced with Companies House data, director details, enriched phone/email contacts, dedupe against your CRM, or a fully managed monitoring pipeline — message me via my Apify profile and I'll build it. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): What to fetch. **New registrations** = registered in the last N days (new-business trigger). **Expiring soon** = upper-tier registrations whose expiry date falls within the next N days (renewal/compliance leads). **Recently lapsed** = expiry date passed within the last N days and not visibly renewed. **Search register** = query by name / address / registration number (verification & prospecting). ## `daysBack` (type: `integer`): New registrations mode: fetch registrations dated within the last N days. Recently lapsed mode: fetch registrations that expired within the last N days. Ignored in other modes. ## `expiringWithinDays` (type: `integer`): Expiring soon mode: fetch registrations whose expiry date falls within the next N days. Ignored in other modes. ## `nameSearch` (type: `string`): Full or partial business/person name (e.g. "skip hire"). Words are prefix-matched; use *word to match inside a word. Main filter in Search mode; also narrows the date-window modes. ## `addressSearch` (type: `string`): Full or partial address — postcode ("SW9" or "SW9 0AD"), town, or street (e.g. "station road birmingham"). Works in every mode. ## `numberSearch` (type: `string`): Full or partial registration number, e.g. "CBDU128084" or "CBDU". Use this to verify whether a company is legally registered to carry waste. Search mode only. ## `regime` (type: `string`): Filter by tier and registration type. Upper tier = businesses carrying other people's waste professionally (3-year renewable registrations). Lower tier = carrying own waste / exempt bodies (never expires). ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum records to return. ## Actor input object example ```json { "mode": "newRegistrations", "daysBack": 7, "expiringWithinDays": 60, "regime": "any", "maxResults": 1000 } ```` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
