[[Soil, Rubble, Hardcore]] is the general description used by Local Authorities and [[WDF]] for the [[Inert Waste]] deposited at [[Household Waste Recycling Centres]] ([[HWRC]]) which is then sent for processing into a '''[[Secondary Aggregate]]''' or for [[~~disposal~~]]~~, for example in an~~ [[Inert Landfill]].

[[Soil, Rubble, Hardcore]] is the general description used by Local Authorities and [[WDF]] for the [[Inert Waste]] deposited at [[Household Waste Recycling Centres]] ([[HWRC]]) which is then sent for processing into a '''[[Secondary Aggregate]]''' for further use in construction. In the case of Soil, Rubble, Hardcore which cannot be reprocessed into a Secondary Aggregate, especially for the Soil part of the waste, material is disposed of to [[Landfill]] - especially [[Inert Landfill]].

== Overview ==

Whilst [[Soil, Rubble, Hardcore]] captures the [[WDF]] description, in terms of [[EWC]] references there are wider categories captured in a different way, and this is further expanded in WikiWaste on the page on [[Inert Waste]]. When considering these codes the majority of these waste types arise from [[Construction and Demolition Waste]] and [[Mining Waste | Mining ~~And~~ Quarrying Waste]] with a large proportion sent for processing into [[Secondary Aggregate]]. In this context the amount of tonnage from Local Authorities is relatively small in comparison.

This means that the Soil, Rubble, Hardcore reported by Local Authorities is reported under a grouped reporting category in the [[DEFRA]] digest figures, normally as part of the larger tonnage of 'household and similar waste' category that totaled 15,108,682 tonnes of household category tonnage alone in the UK in 2016 (also summarized in the page on [[UK Waste Tonnage]]).

The macro numbers above therefore do not breakdown the component elements of Soil, Rubble, Hardcore in respect of [[Household Waste]], but the following headers in the page are the materials as handled by Local Authorities and as reported through [[WasteDataFlow]], although Soil, Rubble, Hardcore is sometimes listed within 'household and similar' waste as well.
