Special waste refers to materials that cannot be collected through standard trash or recycling services due to size, handling requirements, or regulatory considerations. Athens Services provides specialized collection and disposal solutions designed to manage these materials safely and in compliance with applicable local, state, and federal regulations.
Athens’ operations teams are trained to handle a wide range of special waste removals. All transportation personnel complete 40-hour Hazardous Waste Operations training (29 CFR 1910.120) and operate under required permits. Athens assists customers in profiling materials, coordinating proper handling, and ensuring waste is disposed of quickly, safely, and responsibly at approved facilities.
