Can MXI process and dispose of my HHW waste?
Yes. Virginia adopted the federal exemption for processing HHW. We also secured
a clarification from Virginia that allows MXI to receive HHW on a Hazardous Waste
Manifest with Waste Codes. Our MRF has extensive experience processing HHW and we
are expanding our capability to conduct collection events.

Yes. MXI works with a number of communities to transport and process materials the
community has collected at Permanent Collection locations. In addition, MXI will
work with communities to put in place the facilities, manpower, training and procedures
required to operate a Permanent site.

event?
Yes. MXI can become the generator on the manifest for materials collected at a collection
event that is manned by MXI personnel.
Can MXI transport waste from my facility?
MXI transports waste, including HHW waste in both truckload and less than truckload
quantities, from customer facilities on MXI-owned trucks. MXI can transport both
nonhazardous and hazardous wastes that are in liquid, solid, or semi-solid form.
We can transport waste in drums, totes and tanks as well as other DOT approved containers.
for more information about our transportation services. Materials are
required to be scheduled into the MRF before transport.
What is the Abingdon Material Recovery Facility emergency spill plan?
While we take every precaution to prevent accidental spills, MXI does have in place
a minimization and response plan in the event of a spill. Since we are also waste
transporters, all of our trailers are equipped with an over-pack drum and absorbent.
Each tractor has a spill kit, absorbent and safety and cleanup equipment. Each driver
has been trained in our spill response plan. At the Materials Recovery Facility
(MRF), the facility itself is on an impervious material that has been graded to
allow for accumulation rather than runoff of spilled materials. The MRF is equipped
with over-pack drums, absorbent materials, spill response kits and materials handling
equipment required to address any spill type. Our staff is continually trained to
ensure that they know how to respond to any spill.
Can I get references for HHW that I can Contact?
Yes. MXI will provide you with specific references that you can contact.
