Transport-linked waste streams
Eastleigh’s road and rail connectivity can make the town a convenient operating base for fleets, mobile engineers, couriers, contractors and maintenance teams. These activities commonly create waste oil, oil filters, fuel filters, contaminated absorbents, aerosols, tyres, batteries within WEEE, and fluorescent tubes from premises maintenance. Businesses should keep these streams separate from general waste and avoid mixing liquids with rags, packaging or filters. Correct segregation helps prevent reclassification problems and supports a smoother hazardous waste collection.
