Non-hazardous Waste Disposal & Transportation
Non-hazardous Waste Disposal and Transportation
SDS follows the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) waste management hierarchy in recognizing that no single waste management approach can be used to manage all waste streams. The EPA Hierarchy ranks disposal strategies from most to least environmentally friendly. SDS will always choose a reduction and reuse option when they are available.
Non-Hazardous waste materials handled by SDS include the following:
When reuse is not an option we provide clients with non-hazardous disposal via waste to energy incinerators.
