How to read SIC 38110
SIC 38110 reads as division 38 (waste collection, treatment and disposal activities; materials recovery), group 381, class 3811, then the full five digits, inside section E, water supply, sewerage and waste management. A company picks its own codes, up to four, and Companies House does not check them, so 38110 is the company's own description of what it does, and 6,353 list it first where 6,595 list it anywhere.
Who sells into division 38
Almost every business here runs trucks. Fleet sellers work the division constantly: vehicle finance, tracking and telematics, tipper and hook loader dealers, fuel cards and operator licence consultants.
About SIC 38110
How many UK companies use SIC code 38110?
6,595 active UK companies list 38110 (Collection of non-hazardous waste) among their registered SIC codes. Each company may register up to four. Of those, 6,353 put it first. The figures come from the August 2026 Companies House register snapshot, and count active companies only.
Does registering a waste SIC code mean the company holds a waste carrier licence?
No. The SIC code and waste carrier registration are separate systems. Anyone can incorporate with 38110 and hold no licence at all, and plenty do that before applying. Carriers register with the Environment Agency in England, or the equivalent bodies in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The Companies House record has no bearing on it. Check licences directly rather than guessing from a SIC code.
