Chemical Container Disposal
In order to be legally compliant, you need to manage your chemicals carefully to reduce the amount of chemical waste produced. One thing which is important yet unavoidable is chemical container disposal. Here at Neales Waste Management, we have over 25 years of experience in chemical drum disposal services for all different types of industries and trades in the North West of England.
Why is proper chemical container disposal necessary?
Once the chemicals have been used within production, then the containers and drums will have residual amounts of product left inside. This residue can pose a threat as hazardous waste if you do not dispose of it properly. It could allow chemical run-off to mix with water, leak into soil and even get accidentally consumed and causing harm to wildlife and humans. In order to prevent this from happening, you need to make sure that your chemical drum disposal is done correctly, safely and legally, to reduce chemical waste and to avoid large fines and potential threats to the environment.
How to dispose of chemical container
Not all chemical containers can be reused or recycled depending on what was being stored. If you want to dispose of them yourself, then you need to triple rinse and clean the containers and take off all the warning labels. However, you will then need to consider that the water will now be considered hazardous waste so that will need to be disposed of correctly. There are also specific cleaning guidelines and procedures to follow when cleaning them, and you need to make sure that you are compliant to the regulations and laws. This is why it is much safer and easier to use Neales for your chemical drum disposal.
