The Waste Hierarchy is defined in Art 4 of the Waste Framework Directive 2008/98/EC and transposed into legislation by the Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2012, as amended. The Waste Hierarchy applies as a priority order in waste prevention and management legislation and policy:

  1. Prevention
  2. Preparing for re-use
  3. Recycling
  4. Other recovery e.g. energy recovery
  5. Disposal
