We can only make grants to projects  if they are within a certain distance of a Biffa operation.  Whether you need to be within 10 or 25 miles of a Biffa operation  depends on the type of funding you are looking for.  You can find more details about our schemes on our homepage.  Each scheme has slightly different additional criteria, so please read the information, application form and notes on our downloads section carefully before applying. 

If you are unsure whether your project meets our eligibility criteria, call us on 01636 670000.

Is your project in Staffordshire?  There are separate funding arrangements for these projects.  If your project is based in Staffordshire, please contact the Staffordshire Environmental Fund on 01785 811600 or email info@staffs-environmental.co.uk to discuss your application.

If you are looking for funding for a project, the first step is to check here to see if you are within the required distances of a Biffa operation.

To ensure your postcode is correct, please visit www.royalmail.com and use the 'postcode finder' facility, as postcodes are regularly changed and updated.

If you identify that the nearest Biffa operation is not a landfill site but a different kind of Biffa operation, you must also provide details of the nearest landfill site. This is due to the ENTRUST regulations that state that all projects under objects D, DA & E must be within 10 miles of a landfill site. To establish where the nearest landfill site is in location to your project please go to the following website www.ltcs.org.uk and then click landfill operators under Donors on the left hand side menu.

HM Revenue and Customs also has a list of landfill site operators, www.hmrc.gov.uk - search for landfill sites operators in search box and then click 'list of landfill site operators'.
