Hazardous Waste
Disposing of hazardous substances can be a tricky business. Get it wrong, the ramifications could be severe for both public health and the environment. Responsible waste management is critical. Mayglothling can help.
Waste that could harm people or our planet is classed as ‘hazardous’ under environmental legislation, and therefore requires special care and attention. The term covers many waste streams, from pharmaceutical and chemical to radioactive and WEEE, each having its own unique disposal requirements. This is our bread and butter. Our hazardous waste disposal experts can help you ensure all waste is categorised, collected, transported and disposed of in a cost-effective, environmentally friendly and compliant manner.
EWC Codes
Managing hazardous waste is dangerous work so to take care of your waste safely, we need to know everything about it. That means we require the EWC Code, SIC Code and UN Numbers so we can assist you with packaging labelling consignment notes and waste transfer notes. This will help us ensure all hazardous waste is sent to the most appropriate treatment facility.
Sound complicated? Don’t worry, our helpful team can undertake a comprehensive waste audit and guide you through the process with ease. Your hazardous waste will be transported safely and to the right treatment facility. That is our guarantee.
