Hazardous Waste Disposal
Waste is considered ‘hazardous’ under environmental legislation when it contains substances or has properties that might make it harmful to human health and/or the environment. Hazardous wastes usually have one or more of the following hazardous traits: flammable, oxidising, toxic, corrosive, carcinogenic or ecotoxic. Hazardous wastes can be found in different physical states such as gaseous, liquids, or solids.
Waste Experts work with a nationwide network of licensed treatment facilities where the focus is on re-use, recycling and recovery of wastes using methods that are safe for the environment. We aim to reduce the need for incineration or landfill by offsetting one waste stream against another during the treatment or recovery process, thus minimising the environmental impact of your waste. Any non-recyclable waste, where possible, is sent for recovery via Energy from Waste facilities.
We specialise in the compliant collection, transportation, treatment and disposal of all types of hazardous waste. Our nationwide ADR transportation network means that we’re fully equipped to collect and transport drums, packages, bulk liquids or IBCs across the UK. Our hazardous waste management services cover a wide range of waste streams, including chemicals, oils, electronics, paints, aerosols and many more.
Whether you’re a small company or a multi-site operation disposing of hazardous waste can present a real challenge. Waste Experts provide a bespoke service that’s tailored to your exact needs and guarantee all your waste will be managed in a consistent manner, no matter where you are in the UK.

The implementation of the Hazardous Waste Regulations and Landfill Directive has brought about significant changes in the hazardous waste management and disposal service over the past three decades. These changes include the classification of many new wastes as hazardous and the adoption of more rigorous Waste Acceptance Criteria (WAC) testing, which has limited the number of sites capable of handling certain types of hazardous, chemical, and toxic waste.
