Hazardous & Chemical Waste Disposal
Controlled waste moved and treated through licensed pathways, with verified outcomes.
Hazardous waste carries the highest regulatory and reputational risk of any waste stream. Chemicals, solvents, oils and other controlled wastes must be classified correctly, transported by licensed carriers and tracked to an approved treatment facility, and the waste generator stays liable throughout. AAS coordinates hazardous waste disposal so that nothing falls through the gaps.
We help identify and classify your waste streams, match them to licensed transport and treatment partners, and consolidate the waste tracking and disposal documentation. That gives you verified disposal outcomes and one clear record across every site.

Controlled waste tracking and licensed treatment
Hazardous and controlled waste is regulated by state and territory EPAs, with licensing, classification, dangerous goods transport and waste tracking requirements. Interstate movements are subject to national controlled waste arrangements, adding another layer of documentation.
AAS coordinates each stream through licensed carriers and treatment facilities, supported by waste tracking, chain-of-custody records and certificates confirming treatment or disposal. You get the evidence needed for EPA, WHS and ESG reporting in one place.

Frequently asked questions
What counts as hazardous waste?
Hazardous waste is waste that is toxic, flammable, corrosive, reactive or otherwise dangerous to people or the environment, such as chemicals, solvents, oils, batteries and contaminated materials. Each state classifies waste slightly differently, and we can help identify which category applies.
Can you dispose of unknown or unlabelled chemicals?
Yes. Our partners can arrange identification and lab-packing of unknown chemicals before transport and treatment, so they are handled safely and compliantly.
Do you provide waste tracking documentation?
Yes. We coordinate the required waste tracking and supply consolidated disposal and treatment certificates for every consignment.
Can you move hazardous waste interstate?
Yes. We coordinate interstate movements through licensed carriers and facilities in line with national controlled waste requirements.
