Chemical Waste Disposal
Compliant collection and disposal of industrial and commercial chemical waste across the UK.
How our chemical waste disposal service works
We collect and transport hazardous chemical waste from manufacturing sites, laboratories, schools, hospitals and commercial premises throughout the UK. Every collection is carried out by ADR trained drivers using UN approved packaging, and every movement is documented with a Duty of Care hazardous waste consignment note.
Our chemical waste service covers acids, alkalis, oxidising agents, reactive chemicals, unknown and legacy stock, and mixed laboratory smalls. Waste is transported and treated at licensed disposal sites, with recovery prioritised wherever the waste stream allows.
Every collection includes the same standard of care as a matter of course. The material is taken to licensed disposal or recycling sites in our network, and your hazardous waste consignment note is returned to you for your records.

The importance of safe chemical waste disposal
Chemical waste disposal is controlled for good reason. Handled badly it puts people, drains and watercourses at risk.
Protects your people
Compatible containers, correct labelling and trained handling remove the burn, fume and reaction risks that come with badly stored waste.
Keeps you compliant
Duty of care follows the waste. Licensed carriage, licensed disposal sites and accurate paperwork give you the evidence you need.
Protects the environment
Where the stream allows we recover rather than destroy, so useful material goes back into productive use.
