In the automotive industry, waste comes in various forms, each requiring specialised handling to ensure environmental safety and regulatory compliance. Here’s a glimpse of the common types of automotive waste we manage:
- Oils and Lubricants – Used engine oil, transmission fluids, brake fluids, and other lubricants are hazardous if not disposed of correctly. We ensure these substances are collected and treated safely to prevent environmental contamination.
- Batteries – Automotive batteries contain harmful chemicals like lead and acid. Our disposal services guarantee that batteries are handled with utmost care, recycling their components to minimise environmental impact.
