Source approach
We prefer primary, official and manufacturer sources for requirements and technical specifications.
- U.S. Environmental Protection Agency — General waste-management and materials information.
- Environment and Climate Change Canada — Canadian environmental information and federal context.
- Municipal and regional waste authorities — Local collection, diversion and disposal rules.
- Waste service providers and container manufacturers — Current rated capacities, service terms and equipment requirements.
Local requirements
Requirements can change by jurisdiction and over time. Verify current law, codes, permits, contracts, workplace procedures and manufacturer documentation before acting on safety-critical or regulated questions.
