The problem
ADR — carriage of dangerous goods
Waste batteries are dangerous goods for transport. ADR sets the packing, labelling, documentation and carrier rules for road carriage. It is not an EU regulation, but it binds the movement that EPR take-back actually requires.
ADR (UNECE)
The labyrinth is not only EU Official Journal texts. Operational compliance includes transport law that sits beside the Battery Regulation.
