Underground tanks are used to store a wide range of petroleum-based products from home heating oil to jet fuel. Aging tanks can leak their product into the soil and into the groundwater system. This can affect your drinking water and can pose serious health problems for you, your coworkers, and your family. Thankfully, Eastern Environmental can help remove your hazardous waste. We serve properties all throughout North Carolina, including Wilmington, Charlotte, Raleigh, Jacksonville, Fayetteville, as well as clients throughout South Carolina, including Charleston and Myrtle Beach.
There are four characteristics that define hazardous waste:
- Ignitability- Hazardous waste that is flammable including compressed gasses, solids that spontaneously combust, and liquids with a flash point of 60 degrees Celsius or 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Corrosivity- Hazardous, corrosive substances have the ability to eat through containers which can cause harmful materials to leak out.
- Reactivity- Reactive wastes are unstable which causes them to become dangerous.
- Toxicity- Toxic materials often have long-term effects on the health of humans and the environment.
The EPA has developed a procedure for determining whether a material qualifies. Don't let hazardous waste, such as asbestos, lead paint, and mold sit around on your property. It should always be removed as soon as possible. If improperly managed, it can threaten human health and the environment. If a property has laid dormant or unmaintained for a long period of time, it may be past the point of remediation. In the event of this, we also offer safe and effective demolition services.

Importance of Hazardous Waste Removal
- Abide by workplace regulations: Failure to comply with proper training and removal of hazardous waste in the workplace can result in serious health issues for individuals who come in close contact with the waste. To this day, EPA estimates that there are hundreds of hazardous waste sites remaining from the time that industries did not realize the dangers of unregulated disposal.
- Avoid environmental consequences: The improper handling of hazardous waste can result in severe consequences for the environment. Not only does the environment feel the impact, but those who consume contaminated water, air, or food can face serious health problems. Hazardous waste that finds its way into the water table is almost impossible to reverse and cleanup and remediation costs for the companies responsible can be into the millions of dollars range.
