Types of Liquid Waste

Disposing of liquid wastes appropriately requires knowledge of the environmental and occupational Queensland safety standards and requirements of a wide range of liquid waste forms.


Many commercial businesses require liquid waste disposal in one form or another. The nature of these businesses, including restaurants, laboratories, warehouses, and factories often requires efficient waste disposal that ensures the premise is left in a safe, hygienic and completely clean state.


A wide range of liquid wastes require professional collection, transportation and disposal:


  • Storm Drain Waste
  • Oily Water 
  • Septic and Sewage Waste
  • Industrial Waste Water
  • Grease Waste
  • High Pressure Water Blasting Waste
  • Sludge and Residential Waste Water
  • Oil Interceptor Waste
  • Asbestos Liquid Waste
  • Drill Mud Disposal

Disposal of Liquid Waste

Liquid waste disposal processes in South East Queensland involve either vacuuming the waste into specialised containers or safely packaging and transporting the waste to a fully-licensed liquid waste disposal facility. If the liquid waste is made up of liquid material requiring recycling, it is then transported to a facility where it will be treated in line with the local rules and regulations.


The correct disposal, in a timely manner, of liquid waste on construction sites is essential both for the safety of the site and the continued efficiency of its operations. VAC2U are approved waste carriers by the Queensland Department of Environment, with experience meeting the liquid waste management needs of industrial projects.

High pressure cleaning services

High pressure water blasting is an efficiently and environmentally sensitive solution for surface preparation and intensive cleaning. This cleaning service is frequently used to clear and clean drains, pipes, septic tanks, roads, concrete and natural stone surfaces. Water blasting projects generate liquid waste which then needs to be safely removed from the worksite.


For a team experienced in high pressure cleaning and liquid waste disposal, with the unique equipment capable of handling both services, look no further.
