Chemical waste disposal services are available from the EHSO Health and Safety Section as described in the following instructions

1. Download the "Chemical Removal Form" Excel spreadsheet and type in the required data listed below for e-mail transmittal.
2. Complete the Generator Section only.  This includes your name, building and room number, phone number, and mail code.  Please fill in the Location of Materials for Pickup if different.

4. Please indicate the number of bottles in the space provided.
5. Please indicate the bottle size (milliliters, liters, gallons, etc.) in the space provided.
6. If available please enter the CAS number and Physical State so we can correctly identify your chemicals.
7. Please place an 'X' in the Surplus? column if the chemical is unused/sealed, unexpired, and in good condition, so it can potentially be added to the Chemical Redistribution Program.
8. If you have an unknown chemical, follow the screening procedure in Appendix A of the Hazardous Waste Management Manual (http://www.uic.edu/depts/envh/Departmental/WasteManual.html).
9. Put different sized bottles on different lines.
10. Based upon that information, we will complete the rest of the form using regulatory and compatibility guidelines.
