BATREC offers you its hazardous waste transport services from your site to ours in Switzerland. We are experts in international laws for the transport of special waste.
The regulations
When transporting dangerous goods it is necessary to understand 2 main aspects: the regulations related to packaging according to the means of transport (land, air and sea) and the authorisations of carriers to transport in the territories. When the notification request is submitted to the authorities, one of the annexes sets out the route of the waste as from the site of the exporter up to the receiver, the carriers chosen for each leg must have the correct authorisations. The exporter must pack his waste by applying the code relating to the means of transport, in particular with respect to labeling.
Our expertise
Based on the 3 international codes for the transport of dangerous goods, BATREC assists you in choosing the appropriate packaging for your waste.
