Waste King System for Disposing of Mercury Safely

The Waste King nine-step Mercury Recycling process offers true ‘closed loop recycling’. The system:

1. Ensures customers comply with the current Landfill and WEEE Directives, as well as existing Duty of Care legislation.
2. Demonstrates their commitment to environmental best practice - proof of which is increasingly being demanded by both public and commercial customers.
3. Provides a safe, convenient and efficient method of disposal.
4. Improves site housekeeping
5. Reduces the volume of waste sent to landfill.
6. Reduces health and safety risks with purpose-designed containers constructed in high durability polyethylene with a shoebox lid for ease of access, along with carrying handles and security strapping.
7. Carries highly visible safety labelling and the now mandatory European Waste Catalogue code number.
8. Eliminates harmful emissions to landfill and water courses.
9. Provides a safe internal or external lamp storage facility.
10. Supplies a Hazardous Waste Consignment Note, certifying compliance with the Hazardous Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2005. And, under Special Waste Regulations in Scotland, collections will normally be completed within seven to 10 days and require Section 62 Special Waste Consignment notification.
