Hazardous Waste Disposal

Technologist Collecting image

EH&S disposes of your hazardous waste for you.

We verify the hazard(s) of your waste, pack it into larger containers, and arrange to ship it off campus for incineration or burial in landfills.

We collect over 200 tons of hazardous waste each year.

The following section covers what YOU must do in order for us to safely collect and handle your hazardous waste.
