Reducing Our Ecological Footprint with Recycling

Stewardship of the environment is an extremely pressing need of our time. Pollution has wrought havoc upon our world’s environment, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t things we can do to aid the situation.

Here at Broadview Waste Services, we’re dedicated to recycling universal waste and any kind of waste whenever possible. We wanted to take some time today to discuss some of our different recycling practices and how we try to reduce our ecological footprint.

Handling All of Your Maryland Universal Waste Removal

Broadview Waste Services is registered as a large quantity handler of universal waste with the Maryland Department of Environment, and this means that we’re able to receive, transport, and process all different types of universal waste. Here are some of the types we work with the most:

  • Battery Recycling
  • Mercury-Containing Elements
  • Fluorescent Lamps
  • Crushed Lamps
  • PCB Ballasts
  • Non-PCB Ballasts
  • Tritium Exit Signs

Universal Waste Doesn’t Belong in a Landfill

It’s important to note that ending up in a landfill isn’t an ideal solution for any type of waste in Maryland, but this is especially true for universal waste. Much of what is labeled as “universal waste” is hazardous and cannot be properly disposed of in the same way as regular waste. It’s for this reason that we send all of the universal waste we receive from our clients to fully-permitted recycling processors.

You’re Responsible For Your Waste

You’re responsible for any and all universal waste that your business creates up until it’s destroyed. This means that you’re still responsible for any waste that leaves your premises. This means that it’s important to partner with a responsible Maryland universal waste disposal company.
