Is your workplace compliant with hazardous waste regulations?

Many regular workplace items can be considered hazardous waste, including printer toner, cleaning chemicals, and electronic devices. If it’s classed as hazardous waste, it must be collected by a registered waste carrier, such as Grundon, regardless of the size of the item or quantity produced.

Small enough to fit under a desk or inside a cupboard, our 55 litre Haz-Box is the perfect solution for storing small items of mixed hazardous waste.

Our Haz-Box service is designed to give customers peace of mind that all hazardous waste is being disposed of correctly and legally – while at the same time maximising opportunities for reuse and recovery.

Frequently asked questions

We’re a small company, so I’m not sure if we have any hazardous waste?

Hazardous waste comes in many shapes and sizes, so it is likely that you do have some items on your premises that will require specialist hazardous waste disposal.

For example:

  • Fluorescent tubes
  • Aerosols
  • Inks
  • Batteries
  • Solvents and resins – including cleaning products
  • Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) – including computer equipment or TVs fridges
  • Contaminated wipes or rags
  • Paint and paint tins

I’m not sure I have the space to store all these items separately.

That is exactly why we developed our Haz-Box service. We fully understand that many businesses have limited storage space.

The Haz-Box is small and neat enough to fit under a table or in a cupboard and it comes with its own protective lid. The idea is you use it to store a variety of different small items of hazardous waste. Typically, over the course of a month, that might mean used printer cartridges, light bulbs, cleaning fluids or aerosols and a few contaminated rags or PPE.

What happens if some of my hazardous waste items are too big to fit in the Haz-Box?

We offer a full range of hazardous waste collection services and our experts will be ready to advise and assist you.

We find it challenging to keep track of all the various waste legislation. How can you help us?

We know it is quite a demanding task, which is why we we’re here to help.

By putting your waste in Grundon’s hands you can be assured that you will be 100% compliant at every stage.

This is really important because businesses which are non-compliant with waste legislation risk being fined, which not only impacts them financially but can also damage their reputation with their customers and the wider public.

Can hazardous waste be recycled?

Yes, very often it can. The contents of your Haz-Box will be assessed by our degree-trained team of ChemPack chemists.

They will take every opportunity to identify waste that can be recovered, reprocessed or recycled.

For example, our cable granulation facility strips plastic or rubber sleeves from cables and granulates it into pellets ready for reconstitution. Copper in cables can be granulated into a coarse powder and sent for metal reclamation.

What capacity is the Haz-Box?

A Haz-Box is a 55 litre lidded plastic box. It should fit comfortably under a desk or in cupboard.
