Health, Safety and Environment coordinates all hazardous waste disposal through their Hazardous Materials Management system. There is a very wide range of hazardous waste that can be accommodated, but they each require different preparation for pickup.
Determining Hazardous Waste Type
To help guide you in preparing your waste for pickup, please read below and visit UBCO’s Hazardous Waste Disposal webpage. HSE has also developed a flow chart to assist in determining the appropriate category of hazardous waste you have.
Chemical/Material Recycling
If you feel you have hazardous materials or chemicals that you no longer need but are in a condition that others could use, please reach out to francois.miros@ubc.ca or hse.ok@ubc.ca.
