Procedures for Hazardous/ Chemical Waste Collection


Any department generating a waste classified as hazardous by the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, Division of Solid Waste will complete a HAZARDOUS WASTE REMOVAL form and submit it to the UTC Department of Safety & Risk Management. The Department of Safety & Risk Management will coordinate all hazardous waste pick-ups on campus and be responsible for manifesting, labeling, and packaging of any hazardous waste shipped off-site.

Any material submitted for removal that does not have a UTC hazardous waste label attached will not be accepted for disposal. Label information will include:

  • Generator's name
  • Department
  • Quantity
  • Chemical constituents
  • Hazard
  • Date accumulation began
