Chemical Waste Risks

Stay safe and compliant. Let us manage your chemical waste.

 

Chemical waste will change over time and can become unstable. Containers can also break down, or get damaged being stored through the years. Depending on the condition of the containers, it may be best to call our trained experts.

We recommend having an environmental waste plan in place, to ensure timely disposal. Hanging onto unwanted, expired chemicals puts you at risk for health, safety risks, environmental compliance issues, and potential fines. The price to dispose of the unwanted chemical waste within your facility will not go down. The costs can only go up.

Talk to a TRC Environmental Team Member to develop a proactive Environmental plan to reduce risks, and ensure compliance while properly handling unwanted chemicals.

 

Chemical Spill Clean Up & Remediation

Chemical waste clean-up and remediation services are often overlooked parts of maintenance and facility operations.

 

TRC can help to identify contaminated areas, establish a hazardous waste management plan, and perform a full remediation to regulatory standards

If you are renovating or re-purposing a portion of your facility, you may require remediation projects as part of your renovations. Firstly, items as common as mercury containing devices or PCBs have well established spill clean-up requirements. However, these requirements may be difficult for you to meet yourself, if you lack that type of training. Something as small as a broken thermometer in a laboratory may require a professional clean-up service. Secondly, a full mercury remediation plan may be required for an old boiler room or transformer vault.

With such a variety of instances, it is best to call our team at 800-795-1230 to discuss the specifics of your chemical spill or remediation needs.
