Cleanliness
Standards
Proper rinsing and cleaning are essential steps in safely disposing of empty AgVet chemical containers.
Clean containers are crucial for meeting occupational health and safety standards in our recycling processes.
Rinsing should be carried out immediately after emptying the chemical container, as residues become harder to remove when dry. Under current regulations in most states, containers that have not been properly rinsed can be classified as hazardous waste. It is recommended that containers are triple rinsed.
