Hazardous Waste Labeling

 

1. Steps to Fill Out Waste Tag ( Current “Pick Up Tags")
   

   An MSU Waste Materials Pick Up Tag must be attached to each waste storage container.

   Complete immediately:

   • location and contact information
   • start date (date first drop of waste is added to container)

   
   Complete as waste is accumulated:

   • UNABBREVIATED chemical names of each material poured into container
   • Actual amounts of material added to container (amount of waste in container must match listed materials at all times)
   • Check balance water as necessary
   • Potential hazards (ignitable, corrosive, toxic, reactive) by checking applicable boxes

   
   Complete when container is full (or within 90 days):

   • Color
   • Consistency
     
     
   Request waste tags on the EHS Safety Portal (Lab Label Request).
