The Submission Flow

From your records to the EA in four steps.

WasteBolt does the heavy lifting. You just hit Submit.

01

Your WTNs & Dockets are Already There

Every completed WTN and weighbridge docket you've created in WasteBolt automatically appears in the DWT submission queue. Zero data re-entry. No CSV exports. No copy-pasting between systems.

02

Pre-Submission Readiness Check

WasteBolt validates every record before you submit. Each item is marked Ready (green), Warning (amber), or Error (red) so you know exactly what needs fixing — and what you can submit right now.

03

One-Click Submit to the EA

Hit Submit on any ready record. WasteBolt builds the correct DWT API payload — including EWC codes, HP codes, POPs data, container types, weights, and carrier details — and sends it directly to the Environment Agency.

04

Waste Movement ID Returned

On success, the EA returns a unique Waste Movement ID. WasteBolt stores it against your record instantly. Your submission is tracked, timestamped, and permanently archived — EA inspection ready.

Pre-Submission Validation

Know exactly what's ready before you submit.

Every record in your DWT queue is pre-validated against the EA's requirements. Errors that will cause rejection are shown in red. Warnings you can work around (with a prompted reason) are amber. Green means go.
