Universal Waste (UW) describes specific wastes that are generated by businesses as well as unregulated households. The types of waste regulated under the Universal Waste Rule (UWR) include unused pesticides, mercury-containing thermostats, fluorescent light bulbs, and spent batteries. Our goal is to reduce the quantity of these wastes going to landfills or combustors and instead treat or recycle the waste pursuant to federal regulations (40 CFR Part 273).
Universal Waste
eWaste consists of discarded electronic items. Some examples would include: cell phones, computers, fax machines and printers. eWaste can contain lead, nickel, zinc, chromium, antimony and other materials that can pose a threat to human health or the environment. TRADEBE collects, segregates, bundles and transports these wastes to appropriate recycling facilities so their constituents can be productively recycled and reused.
The professionals at TRADEBE are uniquely qualified to handle eWaste
eWaste is a serious and growing problem. Each year, more and more computers, printers, cell phones, cameras and related peripherals will be obsolete and discarded. This huge volume would have a serious impact on dwindling landfill space. Our goal is to keep these potentially harmful wastes out of landfills.
