bulk and drummed, fully manifested.
What this service covers

- Acids & caustics — corrosive liquids, spent pickling, etching, and CIP baths
- Contaminated fuels & oily water — hazardous fuel, fuel-water mixes, hydrocarbon-laden liquid
- Process & rinse liquids — hazardous rinse, coolant, and off-spec liquid product
- Plating & metal-finishing liquids — spent electrolyte and metal-bearing solution
- Liquid lab chemicals — bulk reagent and consolidated liquid lab packs
- Tank bottoms & residues — pumpable hazardous tank and vessel residue
Bulk or drummed — two ways in
Bulk recovery. For volume, a vacuum truck or tanker pumps directly from your tank, sump, tote, or vessel — no decanting into drums, no handling penalty. We confirm material compatibility with the receiving tank before a hose touches anything.
Drummed collection. For smaller or mixed volumes, we supply UN-rated drums and totes, segregate by hazard class, and collect on a manifest exactly as with our drummed hazardous service.
How it works
You request a pickup and describe the material. Where the profile isn't already known, we sample and characterize first so the right container, tanker, and disposal path are matched before pickup day. A Class 3, TDG-certified driver completes the collection, classifies and logs each load, and signs custody transfer on site.
You keep the paper manifest; the digital copy is filed for your records, and the signed disposal certificate follows once the material is treated. Documentation is archived for the seven-year Alberta retention window.

Pricing details
Drummed collection starts at $295 per pickup for the stated base load, with additional drums quoted per container. Bulk recovery is quoted by volume (per litre or per load) plus mobilization, since tanker and vacuum work scales with the job. Waste profiling and characterization, where needed, is quoted up front — no surprise re-bills. Consolidate a second stream on the same visit for a $15 multi-stream discount per pickup.
No minimum frequency. No annual contract. Bulk and drummed on one account, one manifest stream.
