Understanding EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) isn’t easy especially when you’re a small business owner juggling packaging, sales, and compliance. Whether you’re selling on Amazon, Etsy, Shopify, or running your own e-commerce brand, knowing your packaging waste fees is essential. That’s why this free EPR Fee Calculator helps you estimate your UK and US compliance costs in just a few seconds.

This tool is designed for small businesses, online sellers, and enterprises who want fast and accurate fee estimates without spending hours reading government documents.

How the EPR Calculator Works

Using the calculator is simple and takes less than a minute. Here’s how:

1. Enter Your Packaging Weight

Start by entering the weight of different packaging materials—plastic, cardboard, glass, aluminum, or mixed packaging. The tool uses updated 2025 rates for accuracy.

2. Choose Your Region (UK or US)

Select whether you want to calculate fees for the United Kingdom or supported US states such as California, Maine, Oregon, or Colorado. EPR fees differ by country and state, so this ensures correct calculations.

3. Get Instant Fee Estimates

Once you click calculate, you’ll instantly see your estimated:

• Total packaging weight
• Fee breakdown by material

• Possible savings
• Helpful graphs for visual understanding

This gives sellers a clear picture of what to expect during EPR reporting.
