Rags and Wipes Waste Disposal

If your business or construction company deals with rags and wipes, it is vitally important that any waste generated is disposed of safely. Rags and wipes that are covered in oils, solvents or other harmful substances can cause a health and fire hazard if disposed of incorrectly. All used rags and wipes as COSHH waste and must be disposed of correctly to avoid harm to life and to the environment.

Rags and wipes are considered hazardous waste if they have been used with hazardous chemicals and materials. Rags that have been soaked in oil or other flammable substances are a fire hazard, and harmful chemicals on rags and wipes can still contaminate the environment if disposed of incorrectly.

If your business generates COSHH waste and you aren’t sure how to dispose of rags and wipes safely, we at The Mick George Group have many years of experience in hazardous waste disposal. We can provide hazardous waste removal services for commercial and construction clients with a quick and convenient service, and we guarantee that all contaminated rags and wipes will be disposed of correctly and safely to minimise environmental impact.
