The dry cleaning sector generates a variety of hazardous waste every day, posing significant risks to both human health and the environment.

The approach to disposing of dry cleaning waste varies based on the waste material. Here’s an overview of how different types of waste are handled:

• Hazardous Waste: This category of waste undergoes various treatments—chemical, thermal, biological, or physical—to ensure its safe recycling or disposal.
• Cardboard Packaging: We recycle clean and dry cardboard by flattening it for the production of new cardboard materials.
• Sludge: Treated sludge may be repurposed for agricultural landspreading, incinerated, or relegated to landfills.
• Textile Waste: Contaminated fabrics and textiles are treated and then sorted for recycling into new fabric materials.
• Liquid Waste: This involves the processing of wastewater and other liquids through methods like dewatering, sedimentation, incineration, composting, or solidification to mitigate environmental impact.

Dry cleaning operations generate a diverse array of waste materials, among which hazardous waste constitutes the primary category due to the use of various chemicals and solvents in cleaning processes. Beyond hazardous substances, any waste produced by dry cleaning services is categorised as commercial waste and necessitates proper disposal. This encompasses not just the hazardous chemicals but also non-hazardous items such as cardboard and plastic packaging, all of which are considered part of dry cleaning waste.

According to the Strategy for Hazardous Waste Management in England (2010), principles have been established to guide those involved in handling, managing, and operating hazardous waste. It is imperative that only qualified individuals or entities, such as licensed waste carriers including businesses like Waste King, undertake the disposal of hazardous waste to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.
