Compliance & Hazardous Waste
Licensed, compliant, and fully documented.
Many transformers contain hazardous substances — most notably PCB-contaminated insulating oils and other regulated materials. Specialist disposal is non-negotiable, both for environmental compliance and to protect your business from regulatory liability.
OSS Transformer Removals operates in line with all relevant UK environmental regulations including the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive and Hazardous Waste Regulations. We issue a full RAMS statement on every job and provide consignment notes and waste transfer documentation as standard.
