Getting it wrong
is expensive
Safe, fully compliant management of hazardous and non-hazardous waste for businesses across the UK — from liquid chemicals in tanks to contaminated sludges, food waste, septic waste and silt. We manage the full process, from site assessment through to final disposal.
Hazardous waste is any waste that could harm people or the environment because it is toxic, corrosive, flammable, infectious or reactive. Getting it wrong means fines and prosecution, accidents on site, pollution of land and water, and damage to your reputation.

Not sure how to classify it?
If your waste does not fit a simple label, we can take samples for analysis, advise on correct waste codes and descriptions, propose safe handling and storage until collection, and build a regular management plan for your site.
