Surrendering a permit

If you are closing down a dry cleaning operation you must surrender your dry cleaning permit.

You must surrender your licence if you no longer run a dry cleaning business or have got rid of your dry cleaning machine.

Once surrendered, the permit cannot be transferred and the business should not continue operating without a new permit application being made. 

To let us know you are surrendering your permit, please download and complete the form under 'Useful documents' below and email it to pollution@islington.gov.uk.

Alternatively, you can send the form to the Pollution team, 222 Upper Street, London N1 1XR.
