E-Signatures

E-Signatures for Waste Transfer Notes

Legally valid electronic signatures on waste transfer notes. Both parties sign on any device — phone, tablet, or desktop. Compliant with UK law since 2011.

Why you need this

The problem

Printing and posting for signatures

Printing WTNs, posting them to the other party, waiting for them to sign and return. Weeks wasted.

Chasing signatures

Notes sitting unsigned because the other party hasn't got round to it. Incomplete records pile up.

Unsigned = non-compliant

A waste transfer note without both signatures is not legally valid. You're exposed.

Legal uncertainty

Are digital signatures actually legal on WTNs? (Yes — since 2011.)
