Dependable Ontario Hazardous Waste Disposal

Air cargo handlers, third-party logistics warehouses, machine shops and manufacturers in the West End send HCI spent coolant, damaged shipments, batteries, solvents and aerosol cans. We profile the stream, bring containers and labels, write the manifest and move it to a permitted site on an HCI truck.

A quote arrives in writing, typically the same or next day, and the pickup is set for a few business days out.

Attentive Ontario Emergency Spill Response

Rancho Cucamonga and Montclair, the cities on either side, both have emergency response agreements with HCI, and Eastvale to the south is on contract for emergency response and hazardous waste. A live dispatcher on 800.988.4424 sends a crew to shut off the source, shield the drains and haul the recovered material.

Trailer rollovers on the 15, punctured totes on loading docks and leaking tanks at fuel yards are the common calls.

The nearest big market to our yard

The city sits at the junction of the 10, 15 and 60 with an international airport, hundreds of warehouses and the fastest-growing industrial district in the region, the Ranch, to the south. From HCI's Corona yard at the 91 and 15, the airport district is about fifteen minutes and the West End plants not much more.

HCI does not yet hold a city contract itself, but the cities on three sides do: Rancho Cucamonga and Montclair for emergency response, Eastvale for emergency response and hazardous waste. The same crews, trucks and paperwork are available to any business or agency in the city.

Questions

Questions from local businesses

What warehouse operators, shop owners and builders in the West End ask first.

Quote a job here

Tell us what you have, how much and the address. A written number usually comes back the same or next day.

Request a quote
How fast can you get to the airport district?
Our Corona yard is at the 91 and 15 junction, about fifteen minutes from the airport without traffic. The dispatcher sends a crew immediately and gives you an honest arrival time.
Is HCI already a city vendor here?
Not yet. Rancho Cucamonga, Montclair and Eastvale, the cities on three sides, all keep emergency response or hazardous waste contracts with HCI, and we quote local agencies and businesses directly.
We run a 3PL warehouse. Can you take damaged hazardous shipments?
Yes. Damaged, refused or undeliverable hazardous freight is profiled, repacked and shipped out for disposal with the paperwork your carrier or shipper needs.
Can you take forklift batteries and warehouse lamps?
Yes. Lead-acid and lithium forklift batteries, fluorescent lamps, ballasts and e-waste are collected as universal waste with recycling documentation.
Can you pump CNC coolant without shutting down the shop?
Usually. Our technician works machine by machine with a portable pump and the vacuum truck outside, so the line keeps running while the troughs are emptied.
Our new building in the Ranch found an old tank. What now?
Call us before the grader does anything else. HCI removes above-ground and underground tanks, excavates impacted soil and provides the closure documentation the city and county require.
Do you serve Chino, Upland and Montclair from the same yard?
Yes. The whole West End runs from Corona, and Montclair's emergency response agreement with HCI is already signed.
