LOw Level Hazardous

Although a lower risk, contaminant risks from the likes of Paint Contaminated, Oil Contaminated, Acids, Batteries and much more still pose a threat. We have outlets and logistics to help with anything you need.

Understanding the risks involved with low level contaminates are crucial to ensuring you are complying with the Soil Guideline Values from the Department for Health. Typical health effects for not ensuring the safe contamination levels of your soil can lead to kidney damage, increased likelihood of cancers, plus more minor issues such as eye irritability, increased headaches, and nausea. In wildlife the lower level hazardous material may not directly impact wildlife and larger creatures, but may be ingested by smaller insects and creatures, which in turn are ingested by the larger wildlife. 

From a business perspective, you are responsible for the safe treatment of your land and are liable to prosecution if the required steps as outlined by the Department for Health are not followed. Ensure you are compliant on your site by contacting us here at Technical Waste Services for a quote.
