Hazardous Waste & Recycling Services
According to the EPA, hazardous waste is a waste with properties that make it dangerous or potentially harmful to human health or the environment. These hazardous wastes can be liquids, solids, contained gasses or sludges. They can be the byproducts of a manufacturing process or simply discarded commercial chemicals. However you created your waste stream, The healthAIR Group is fully licensed and experienced in handling and transporting your hazardous waste.
A modification to the hazardous waste regulations, universal waste rules were designed to reduce regulatory management requirements so as to foster environmentally sound recycling or disposal of certain specified categories of commonly generated hazardous waste. In Michigan, these wastes include electric lamps, devices containing elemental mercury, consumer electronics, batteries, pesticides and pharmaceuticals.
With the advent of the "Tech Revolution" we have generated a very large waste stream that we label E-Waste. Additionally, technology continues to improve at alarming rates and therefore creating a continual stream of outdated hardware. These e-wastes include items such as hard drives, monitors, televisions and their many components. These and many other items contain hazardous materials that under many situations generate large volumes of potentially hazardous materials.

The environmental site assessment (ESA) industry began in response to lending institutions' involvement with high valued property transactions. On various occasions, these institutions have been involved with the transfer, or have been the principal holders, of property that is "contaminated." ESA's are basically a research project involving the review of historical records combined with on-site environmental investigations. The healthAIR Group's Registered Environmental Property Assessors are experienced and prepared to assist in your environmental transaction needs.
