Trucked liquid waste is liquid waste that cannot be legally disposed of down the sanitary sewer or in the stormwater system because of the level of contamination or health/environmental risk it poses. Usually, this waste is produced in large volumes and can come from businesses such as:

  • Restaurants (grease interceptors)
  • Car washes (vehicle wash interceptors)
  • Automotive repair shops (oil water separators)
  • Parking lots (catch basins/stormwater rehabilitation units)
  • Photo processors (fixer)
  • Laboratories (various chemicals)

These and other high-strength liquid wastes must be transported by a hauler to a proper disposal or treatment facility.

Proper Management & Disposal

Under the Environmental Management Act, the business owner is responsible for ensuring proper disposal and compliance with applicable legislation and can be held liable for any contamination created as a result of the deposit of that waste.

Catch Basin Best Management Practices

Catch basin waste is one of the most common types of trucked liquid waste. Use catch basin best management practices to reduce pollution leading to our local waterways, and protect your and neighbouring businesses.
