Transport corridor waste streams
Newport’s position on the M4 corridor makes it a practical base for logistics, fleet, repair and service activity. These operations can generate waste oil, oil filters, fuel filters, contaminated rags, aerosols, tyres and WEEE from workshops, depots and maintenance areas. Such wastes should not be mixed with general commercial waste, and liquid or oil-contaminated materials need careful segregation. Interceptor tanks and oil-water separators at yards, forecourts or washdown areas can also require periodic emptying to prevent contaminated liquids entering drainage systems.
