Lab Packing

Safe sorting, classification, and DOT-compliant packaging of small chemical containers.

Overview

Chemical inventories sorted, classified, and removed.

Lab packing is the process of safely sorting, classifying, and packaging small containers of chemicals and lab materials for transport and disposal - often a mix of hazardous, non-hazardous, and unknown materials. RRD Environmental coordinates lab pack services for any business managing a chemical inventory.

Unknown or unlabeled containers are identified and classified on-site before packaging. All materials are segregated by hazard class, packed to DOT standards, and fully manifested for disposal.

Working with us

A smooth lab cleanout.

Lab cleanouts are familiar territory for us. A conversation first helps everything run well.

A plan before you begin

We are glad to help plan the project before anything is moved, so it goes smoothly.

A second home for usable material

Unopened or usable material can sometimes go to another lab. We are happy to ask around.

Older and unlabeled containers

These are common in long-established labs. We will work through them with you.
