Hazardous Waste Transportation

Hazardous waste transportation under HCI's own licenses, cradle to grave

HCI Environmental provides hazardous waste transportation for businesses and public agencies across Southern California, along with hauling of non-hazardous materials and industrial byproducts. Chemical, biological, pharmaceutical and industrial waste streams move under HCI's California Hazardous Materials Transportation License, USDOT registration and EPA identification. Every load is packaged, labeled, documented and driven by licensed hazardous waste transporters who follow DOT and EPA rules.

The program scales to what you generate. Recurring shipments, facility cleanouts and one-time pickups all run on the same paperwork, and both full truckload and less-than-truckload shipments are available. HCI coordinates directly with the permitted treatment, storage and disposal facility so your material is received without delay. Beyond California, a network of licensed facilities and trained haulers covers shipments across the United States.

Most transportation quotes come back in writing within 24 hours, and pickups are usually scheduled within two to three business days of approval. Our operations team prepares the shipping documents, supports packaging, creates the manifest and coordinates the destination. We also help with waste classification, EPA ID numbers and document retention so your cradle-to-grave responsibility is met.

What types of waste can HCI transport?
Hazardous and non-hazardous waste, including chemicals, sludges, industrial byproducts, contaminated solids, and biological and pharmaceutical materials. Loads range from a few containers to full truckloads. If you are not sure how a material is classified, send what you know and we will help sort it out before it moves.
Are your drivers licensed hazardous waste transporters?
Yes. HCI holds California Hazardous Materials Transportation License 137055 and USDOT registration 4438022, and every driver is trained to DOT and EPA transport standards. Copies of our licenses and training documentation are available on request.
How quickly can you schedule a pickup?
Most transportation quotes come back in writing within 24 hours. After approval, pickups are typically scheduled within two to three business days. Spills and urgent removals go through the 24/7 line at 800.988.4424.
Do you handle small loads or only full truckloads?
Both. Small containers from a commercial site ship less-than-truckload, while manufacturing facilities schedule full truckload, vacuum truck or tanker pickups. Recurring shipments, facility cleanouts and one-time pickups all use the same process.
Who prepares the manifest and shipping paperwork?
HCI's operations team handles the shipping documents, packaging support, manifest creation and coordination with the treatment, storage and disposal facility. You sign as the generator. We also help with waste classification, EPA ID number requirements and document retention.
Where does the waste go after pickup?
To permitted treatment, storage and disposal facilities. HCI is the licensed transporter and coordinates directly with the facility so the load is received and documented. Every shipment is tracked cradle to grave, and the records come back to you.
Do you transport waste outside California?
Yes. HCI moves shipments across the United States through a network of licensed facilities and trained haulers, while handling California permitting requirements locally. Routing is worked out with you based on location, quantity and cost.
What if something leaks during transport?
Every vehicle carries PPE, spill kits and emergency supplies, and drivers are trained in hazardous waste handling and containment. HCI's own 24/7 emergency response crews back up every shipment.
