Waste Coolant Disposal
Waste coolant, such as antifreeze and other glycols, is commonly generated in industries like automotive services, manufacturing, and HVAC operations. It often contains toxic chemicals like ethylene glycol or propylene glycol, which can contaminate water sources if disposed of improperly. Our waste coolant disposal services include the safe collection and removal of these liquids from drums or IBCs using vacuum trucks or pump-out services. We transport the collected coolant to licensed treatment facilities where it is recycled or treated, ensuring environmentally responsible disposal.
Waste Gun Wash Disposall
Gun wash is a solvent-based liquid used to clean paint spray guns and other industrial equipment in sectors like automotive, manufacturing, and finishing. It often contains solvents such as acetone and xylene, making it hazardous and requiring proper handling and disposal.
