IMEC’s Hazardous Waste Management Software

Hazardous waste is a business that can be broken into three separate types of organizations.

  1. Hazardous Waste generators, large quantity and small quantity.
  2. Transporters, also known as brokers. These companies collect waste from generators and transport it to a transfer station.
  3. Environmental Service companies, these companies that manage a treatment storage and disposal facility. (TSDF’s).

IMEC’s hazardous waste management software provides a waste management software solution for all three types of organizations, Waste Transporters, Environmental service companies and Waste generators.
