Hazardous Waste Management

Managing hazardous waste in Utah requires more than just removing unwanted materials. Businesses must comply with both the EPA’s Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Subtitle C regulations (EPA) and the Utah Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control (Utah DEQ), ensuring every waste stream is classified, stored, transported, and disposed of properly.

At Wattbar Industries, we provide industrial and commercial hazardous waste disposal services that keep your facility compliant while reducing risk and liability. Whether you operate a manufacturing plant in Salt Lake City, a laboratory in Provo, or a facility elsewhere in the state, our team helps you navigate the complex requirements of hazardous waste management with reliable, cost-effective solutions.

Types of Hazardous Waste Managed

Wattbar Industries manages a diverse range of regulated waste streams for businesses and facilities across Utah. Our services cover RCRA hazardous waste, non-RCRA regulated waste, and universal waste, ensuring compliance with EPA and Utah Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control standards. 

  • Chemical solvents and corrosive cleaners, including acetone, xylene, and acids, are commonly used in industrial processes.
  • Laboratory waste management, such as lab packs, radiographic waste, and amalgam collection
  • Universal waste, like fluorescent lamps, light bulbs, thermostats, and other mercury-containing devices
  • Paint thinners, coatings, and contaminated soils require specialized treatment to avoid groundwater contamination. 
  • Electronic waste (e-waste), including computers, monitors, hard drives, and other consumer electronic equipment
  • Industrial wastewaters, sludges, and other regulated byproducts
  • Low-level radioactive materials and hazardous substances generated by the research and energy sectors

We do not service residential household hazardous waste (HHW). For household waste, residents should use Salt Lake County HHW collection centers, Logan Landfill Household Hazardous Waste Facility, or other approved public drop-off sites.
