Our waste experts will work with you to determine your facility’s specific needs, identify your waste streams, and provide the most cost-effective management program for your operations. ASWH will provide a facility-specific protocol for proper on-site management, DOT approved waste collection containers, proper labeling, and all required regulatory paperwork. At the time of service, ASWH technicians will pack and transport all regulated waste to an EPA approved treatment facility. An initial copy of your hazardous waste manifest will be provided at the time of service and a final certified copy will be mailed within 30 days of service.
