Nationwide’s Comprehensive Hazardous Waste Management Services

Nationwide Waste Solutions provides hazardous and chemical waste management services across Australia, including Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide. Our solutions are tailored to meet your business’s specific needs, ensuring full compliance with local and national regulations while protecting the environment.

Contaminated Packaging Disposal
Businesses in industries such as manufacturing and automotive often generate contaminated packaging, including drums, IBCs, and other containers that have been in contact with hazardous materials. Nationwide provides efficient contaminated packaging disposal services, ensuring that all materials are removed, treated, and disposed of in compliance with environmental regulations. Our services prevent harmful chemicals from leaching into the environment.
Filter Cake & DAF Sludge Disposal
Industries using filtration systems, such as water treatment plants or manufacturing facilities, often produce filter cake and sludge as by-products. These wastes can contain hazardous substances and must be managed carefully. Nationwide’s filter cake and sludge disposal services include the collection and safe disposal of these materials, ensuring that waste is treated or recycled wherever possible to reduce environmental impact.
Flammable and Solvent Waste Disposal
Flammable materials, including certain solvent waste, pose serious risks if not handled properly. Nationwide offers specialised flammable waste disposal services to manage these hazardous liquids safely. We ensure the proper handling, storage, and removal of solvent wastes from businesses in sectors like automotive, chemical manufacturing, and laboratories, where these materials are commonly generated.
Packaged Chemicals and Lab Waste Disposal
Chemical waste from laboratories and industrial operations often requires careful handling due to its hazardous nature. Nationwide provides safe packaged chemicals and lab waste disposal, collecting expired or unused chemicals and ensuring they are disposed of in compliance with local regulations. Our services cater to research facilities, schools, and chemical manufacturers, ensuring that waste materials are safely managed from storage to disposal.
Paint Waste Disposal
Paint and coating manufacturers, as well as automotive shops, generate significant amounts of paint waste. Improper disposal of this hazardous waste can harm the environment, particularly water systems. Nationwide’s paint waste disposal services ensure that both liquid and solid paint waste is collected and disposed of correctly, minimising environmental risks and ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.
Reportable & Regulated Waste Disposal
Some hazardous waste is subject to additional regulatory oversight, such as reportable and regulated waste (also known as special or prescribed waste). Nationwide specialises in the management and disposal of these tightly regulated materials, providing complete compliance tracking and ensuring that your business meets all legal requirements for handling, storing, and disposing of hazardous materials.
