Hazardous Waste Overview
The OSU EH&S hazardous waste program assists university entities with the safe and compliant handling and removal of hazardous waste. Hazardous waste program staff directly remove waste, provide containers and materials to labs for waste storage, and offer technical expertise to labs and entities in need of assistance. Hazardous waste program staff work with university entities to ensure legally compliant, safe, and timely hazardous waste storage and removal while minimizing impact on lab activities and research.
