What Is Hazardous Waste Disposal?

Hazardous waste disposal involves the proper handling and removal of materials that pose risks to health, safety, or the environment. These wastes may be toxic, flammable, corrosive, or reactive — and require specialized handling, labeling, storage, and documentation.

At Higgins Environmental, we manage every step of the process, including:

  • Waste profiling and classification

  • Packaging and containerization

  • Labeling and manifesting

  • Transportation to licensed disposal or treatment facilities

  • Cradle-to-grave tracking and reporting

We help our clients minimize liability and stay compliant — while protecting their workers and the environment.
