Special Waste

Safe & Compliant Disposal

Being compliant and protecting the environment is the only way we do business. To ensure your business is protected from state and local fines, Metro Waste Authority's trained staff is current on all regulations to protect your business. Because we manage two Subtitle D landfills, we partner with regulatory agencies to make certain your waste streams classified as "Special Waste" are safely and smartly disposed.

Acceptance Hours & Appointments

• Special Waste is only accepted from 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday at both Metro Park East and Metro Park West landfills.
• Liquid Waste requires scheduled appointments and is only accepted at Metro Park East.
• For asbestos, we highly recommends "call-ahead appointments" on the scheduled delivery day to ensure weather conditions allow for acceptance.

Waste Profile Form

All Special and Liquid Waste requires completing the Waste Profile Form and submitting it to the proper contact noted on the form. This form must be completed prior to bringing Special Waste to either landfill. Completing the Waste Profile Form ensures:

• A compliant process
• Approval of the waste stream with proper agencies
• The load is approved

Asbestos does not require the Waste Profile Form, but does require an Asbestos Shipment Form.
