Our Services
United provides transportation, storage and treatment of various hazardous and regulated wastes. The United field service division performs confined space entry including tank and oil/water separator cleaning. Our sister company, Advanced Liquid Recycling serves the automotive industry with parts washers and commodities such as windshield washer fluid, antifreeze, and spill cleanup supplies. The emergency spill response team is on call 24 hours/day, 7 days/week to respond to spills and releases in New England and New York. United has trained personnel, facilities, and equipment located throughout the geographic region to assure prompt and appropriate response.
United’s Waste Analysis Plan requires that all material being delivered to a United facility must be sampled and analyzed prior to shipment. United’s state of the art laboratories assign a specific profile to the generator for the material. The profile determines the proper shipping, storage, and treatment of the product. Waste delivered to a United facility is analyzed at an on-site laboratory before the truck is off-loaded in order to verify that the material matches the profile and meets the permit criteria.
Our Employees
United employees receive hazardous material handling and confined space entry training, including respiratory protection, decontamination, and personal protective equipment use. Annual training includes confined space rescue. More than fifty of United’s field service employees have received 40-hour OSHA Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response Standard (HAZWOPER) certification.
United complies with federal Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) requirements and is a corporate member of the Connecticut Minority Supplier Diversity Council.
