Read about the most frequently asked questions surrounding hazardous and nonhazardous waste cleanup services.
Hazardous or nonhazardous?
Determine whether the waste you have on hand is indeed nonhazardous before your organization starts regulated nonhazardous waste disposal procedures.
There are several methods to do this, but the first is to recognize the waste you already have. Make a list of these things after looking at the waste’s composition and reading the labels of any solutions it came into touch with.
From there, you can check the Code of Federal Regulations to determine if your waste item as a whole—or any of its component parts—is listed as hazardous or nonhazardous waste. Your business trash will often be classified as hazardous waste if it exhibits properties like toxicity, corrosivity, reactivity, or ignitability. However, you should also verify that list because there could be certain exceptions.

Universal trash disposal prevents many businesses from receiving a prompt answer and guaranteeing complete compliance with all local, state, and federal standards.

What is Waste Profiling?
One of the most crucial services we provide is trash profiling, which makes sure businesses adhere to federal requirements for the disposal of hazardous waste. We provide profiling services to local landfills, so they are aware of the sorts of garbage they are getting and how to manage it. In some situations, breaking federal regulations might get your business in legal trouble and subject it to criminal prosecution. Avoid putting yourself at needless risk. Count on our experienced team to profile your waste stream with attention to detail and accuracy.
What is a lab pack?
Several establishments, including labs, hospitals, and schools, employ certain chemicals sparingly (usually less than 10 gallons of each). Unless the handler is an expert chemist with knowledge of hazardous waste laws and regulations, it is impossible to mix these minuscule amounts of chemicals safely.
Lab packing includes:
- Categorizing and separating the small containers of chemicals
- Putting the lab packs in bigger, authorized barrels for hazardous trash.
- Overpacking of bigger drums of waste that are leaking or of low quality.
- Prepping the drums for disposal and shipment by labeling them.
- Preparing manifests for hazardous trash.
