Fast turnaround with urgent response capability.
Deep knowledge of legislation and landfill acceptance criteria in NSW, VIC and QLD.
Decision–ready reporting that gives you clear options for treatment, reuse or disposal.
You want to ensure your waste is handled legally, safely and in the most cost-effective way so that it doesn't have a negative effect on your budget or timeline.
As a minimum, we'll ask about the type and quantity of material, site history, any known contaminants and disposal timelines. The more information we obtain in the initial consultation, the quicker we can finalise the site investigation plan.
Most projects are completed within 5 - 7 business days. However, depending on project scope, we can deliver a waste classification report as quickly as 72 hours.
Your waste classification report will recommend compliant disposal or treatment options and we'll help you plan the next steps.
Not all classified waste goes to landfill. Some materials can be reused if they meet the criteria for Virgin Excavated Material or other low-risk categories, reducing both cost and environmental impact. Your waste classification report will provide more detail on this.
