When confronted with a solid waste challenge, WIH Resource Group can help find a creative, innovative, practical transportation and disposal
solution. Across the United States and in Canada, WIH offers extensive experience in Waste-by-rail offers to cities, counties, states, companies,
manufacturers and others dealing with everything from landfill closures to toxic waste spills. Here are a few benefits shipping waste by rail offers:
- Minimizing risk and cost-efficiencies are two of the biggest benefits of shipping waste by rail. WIH Resource Group is uniquely positioned
to help clients who need to properly dispose of contaminated soils or other wastes via rail. - Using gondola rail cars from or near a hazardous or non hazardous waste cleanup site streamlines the process minimizing the risk factor
to the environment with direct transfer of the waste to the landfill for disposal in a dedicated industrial waste cell (DIWC.). - Rail is one of the safest methods of transportation. When you are shipping rail to rail, there is no chance of cross-contamination. There
are also economic advantages of shipping bulk material by rail that can translate into significant cost savings for the client.
Working closely with the railroads, site clean-up projects are carefully coordinated to meet client deadlines. WIH Resource Group works with a
wide range of both the Class One Railroads and short line railroads for the transportation and logistics management, rail car leasing companies
for rail cars, and a host of large disposal companies with rail served sites that own and operate landfills that are either Subtitle C or D permitted.
Partner landfills accept a variety of waste streams including non-hazardous oilfield waste (non DOW), non-hazardous Industrial solid waste, BC
special waste, commercial waste, domestic and municipal solid waste and hazardous wastes (Subtitle C site only).
