Chemical waste is produced and stored in very different settings, from laboratories and factories to schools, healthcare premises and private properties. The material still has to be identified, contained and sent to a suitable authorised facility, but the way a collection is carried out changes with the premises and the people using it.

Chemical waste on different premises
Occupied buildings, production sites, laboratories and construction projects each bring different access and safety considerations. The sector pages explain the issues most likely to matter while keeping the focus on the waste itself: what it is, how it is contained and where it can be taken.
Sectors: common questions
Should I use a sector page or a service page?
Use the sector page for issues specific to the type of premises. Use a service page when you already know the waste or disposal service you need.
What if I am not sure which service applies?
Contact us with a brief description of the waste or problem. We can identify the most relevant service from there.
Do the same rules apply to every site?
The underlying waste duties remain important, but handling, access and operational controls vary with the premises and the material involved.
