Knowing how a disposal facility accepts lab pack waste and the DOT requirements needed can make a huge difference in the price you pay.

What Does A Lab Pack Service Include?

A lab pack is a process of managing hazardous and non-hazardous materials (including laboratory or medical chemicals and samples, cleaning supplies and maintenance supplies) of five gallons or less for transportation and disposal.

Here’s a quick look at the process:

A highly trained professional will inventory, characterize, segregate and package expired and no longer needed chemicals and materials.
Items are typically segregated with compatible chemicals and then packaged into an appropriate container (typically 55-gallon drums) with compatible absorbent.
The containers are readied for shipment to meet all regulatory requirements, including labeling, manifesting the waste, and providing any additional required shipping documents
Based on generator preference, the waste is either removed the same day or scheduled on a routine basis.
Waste is picked up and transported in DOT-approved containers to its final destination the nearest permitted TSDF
The appropriate paperwork (manifests, shipping inventories, MSDS, etc.) is completed for shipment. Upon completion, the disposal company provides you with a complete and detail drum inventory and packing list and can arrange transportation and disposal as well.
