Improper disposal of hazardous waste, such as used oil and antifreeze, poses significant environmental and regulatory risks. At Master Environmental, we understand the critical importance of managing these substances responsibly and can provide your business with the expertise and solutions needed to ensure compliance and sustainability.

Why Proper Disposal Matters

Used oil and antifreeze are classified as hazardous wastes because of their toxic properties. Improper disposal can contaminate soil, groundwater, and ecosystems, causing long-term environmental damage and posing risks to human health. Furthermore, businesses that fail to comply with disposal regulations can face severe legal penalties, including fines and reputational harm. Disposal practices should therefore align with federal, state, and local regulations to mitigate these risks effectively.

How to Manage Used Oil

Used oil from industrial or automotive processes can often be recycled and reused. Through proper collection and transportation, this material can be refined into new oil or used as a sustainable energy source. Businesses should store used oil in leak-proof, labeled containers away from drains or other environmental pathways. Partnering with a licensed recycling facility or environmental services provider, like Master Environmental, ensures that the oil is managed efficiently and legally.

Guidelines for Antifreeze Disposal

Antifreeze, containing chemicals like ethylene glycol or propylene glycol, requires careful handling because of its toxicity. Similar to used oil, antifreeze can often be recycled. Recycling prevents waste buildup in landfills and reduces the production of new antifreeze, contributing to environmental conservation. Businesses should work with certified recycling and disposal providers to ensure spent antifreeze is treated correctly and in compliance with all requirements.
