    • A Note about Multi-Hazard Waste

    Multi-hazard waste is regulated waste that has multiple hazardous characteristics. Most commonly, this consists of waste chemicals that also contain radioactive materials, however, it may contain wastes with two or three of the following characteristics: biological, chemical, and radioactive.

    Multi-hazard wastes must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Describe your mixed waste and DRS will have the appropriate person work with you to dispose of it. Multi-hazard waste can be difficult and expensive to dispose. If you can, please contact DRS for advice before you generate this waste.
