Hazardous Waste Management
A small shop owner operated an automated workshop in Osborne Park, Perth, for over 15 years. But for some reason, he decided to close his business and wanted to sell the shop. But the shop has accumulated years of hazardous waste, including motor oil, old car batteries, rusted paint tins, chemical solvents, and contaminated rags spread throughout the workshop. He tried to handle the waste but was unable because chemicals and rusted paints were too dangerous for a person to handle. He wanted a professional hazardous waste management team that could handle the workshop in 24 hours without creating a mess.
Hazardous Waste Management Solution
Hazardous waste cannot be treated like general waste. It needs special identification, careful handling, and a licensed disposal facility. For this Osborne Park workshop, our junk removal Perth team provided professional hazardous waste management services.
Same-Day Response
01
Hazardous Waste Assessment
The owner contacted Junk Removal Perth with some shared photos of the shop and requested an immediate inspection. Our hazardous waste management Perth team analyzed the condition after watching the photos and loaded the equipment according to the situation.
Safe Segregation
02
Containment On-Site
Our Junk Removal Perth team arrived on time. Before starting the cleaning process, we conducted a full site risk assessment. Every substance was identified and classified as used oils, chemical solvents, lead-acid batteries, aerosol cans, and contaminated materials. Once classified, every hazardous item was segregated into clearly labelled, approved containers.
Careful Transportation
03
Licensed Collection & Transport
After carefully separating the material into different categories, we loaded the hazardous waste into the vehicle following the strict transport protocols. Under the WA Department of Environmental Regulation requirements, all hazardous waste was tracked from the point of origin to final disposal.
Certified Procedures

Certified Disposal Facilities
Each category of hazardous waste was delivered to its designated licensed facility across Perth. Used motor oil went to an oil recycling processor. Lead-acid batteries were taken to a battery recycling plant. Chemical solvents were delivered to a licensed chemical waste treatment facility. Contaminated materials were processed at a certified hazardous waste disposal site.
Final Clean
05
Site Decontamination
After all hazardous materials were removed, our team carried out a detailed site decontamination with professional and medical tools to prevent contamination of the floor and work surfaces. The workshop was left in a condition safe for the next occupant and free from any chemical contamination that could create liability for the departing owner.
