The hazardous waste licence allows O’Donovan to handle asbestos sheeting, paints, aerosols and other chemically contaminated wastes.
The new service will be run out of the company’s Alperton Lane depot, near Hangar Lane, West London.
Operations director Shane Brown said: “We are really happy to launch this specialist service to our clients. It has been a long, hard road to obtain this licence change, but it will be worth all the blood, sweat and tears to finally be able to offer such an elite service to the industry.
"Our team of experts are well-versed in dealing with the huge amount of compliance and legislative requirements that goes hand in hand with being a waste management business and the addition of the hazardous waste service will complement and consolidate our cradle to grave, giving clients the peace of mind and simplicity that we can take the headache away from the client and provide the reassurance that the treatment and disposal of hazardous materials is in safe hands.”
O’Donovan Waste Disposal was acquired by Swedish waste company Sortera last year. [See previous report here.]
