We can assist with arranging transportation of your explosive wastes. We are serviced by two nationally known carriers of explosives and explosive hazardous waste. Their headquarters are located with 2 miles of our Joplin, MO, disposal facility. We can often arrange “milkrun” pickups from several customers in a geographical area and save you money by sharing transportation costs.
Note: If your location generates less than 220 lbs total of hazardous waste per month and does not accumulate more than 2200 lbs of hazardous waste at any time, your location can be considered as a Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG) and as such many of the hazardous waste rules will not apply. For example, unless you are located in Texas or Louisiana, you may be able to ship your waste explosives to us for disposal as hazardous materials on a bill of lading, and not as hazardous waste on a hazardous waste manifest. This can result in a significant reduction in your transportation costs. We will help you sort out those details so that your disposal costs, including transportation will be as low as possible and meet all of the regulatory requirements.
