Businesses in this class collect and haul specialty waste streams — such as liquid waste, grease trap contents, yard and brush debris, construction rubble, or other non-garbage waste — within a local service area using specialized trucks and tankers. Operations typically involve scheduled pickups from commercial, municipal, or residential clients, transport to licensed disposal or processing facilities, and compliance with applicable environmental transport regulations.
Questions to investigate
- What specific waste streams does the operation collect — liquid waste, grease trap, brush, rubble, or other types?
- How many vehicles are in the fleet, and what types — tankers, roll-offs, dump trucks?
- Are all disposal facilities licensed and verified, and does the insured maintain disposal records?
- Is any hazardous waste handled, even occasionally or incidentally?
