DTSC-registered hazardous waste transporter (EPA ID CAL000464349)
If your business generates wastewater, used oil, spent solvents, or any other liquid that can't legally go down a drain or into a dumpster, that liquid becomes your liability the moment it's created. Storing it wrong, mixing it with the wrong material, or waiting too long to schedule a pickup can turn a routine waste stream into a compliance problem. Glycon collects, transports, and disposes of liquid hazardous waste for businesses throughout So. California, so your operation keeps running while the paperwork and the regulations are handled correctly the first time.

What Counts as Liquid Hazardous Waste?
Liquid waste is any fluid that poses a risk to people, property, or the environment if it isn't handled correctly. It behaves differently than solid waste — a spill spreads fast, soaks into soil, and can reach a storm drain or sewer line long before anyone notices. Common examples include wastewater, fats, oils, and grease (FOG), used oil, chemical byproducts, pesticides, paints and thinners, and corrosive or flammable cleaning fluids. Some of it is hazardous under state and federal rules; some is simply too risky for standard disposal. Either way, it needs a licensed hauler, not a floor drain.
The Liquid Waste We Handle
Most of what we collect falls into a few categories. Industrial liquid waste — cleaning fluids, pesticides, and manufacturing byproducts — has to meet specific state standards for how it's generated, stored, transported, and disposed of, and Glycon manages that process end to end. Chemical waste that meets the legal definition of hazardous waste gets handled under California's hazardous waste program, with the documentation to match. Wastewater is its own challenge: many businesses produce hazardous and nonhazardous wastewater as part of manufacturing or production and don't have the resources or the know-how to dispose of it correctly, which is exactly where Glycon steps in. And every shop, lab, and warehouse that uses solvents or degreasers day to day is generating a liquid waste stream that has to be stored and picked up properly — never poured down a drain.

Why Liquid Waste Compliance Matters in California
California doesn't treat liquid waste as an afterthought, and your business shouldn't either. The Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and CalEPA regulate how hazardous liquids are generated, stored, and transported under Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations, while your Regional Water Quality Control Board and local sanitation district set strict limits on what can enter a sewer or storm drain. Cal/OSHA holds employers accountable for how flammable, corrosive, and reactive liquids are stored on-site before a hauler ever arrives. A single unpermitted discharge, an unlabeled drum, or a grease trap that hasn't been pumped on schedule can trigger a violation notice, a fine, or a shutdown that costs far more than proper disposal ever would.
How Glycon Handles Your Liquid Waste
We start by matching the right containers and supplies to your waste stream — color-coded and labeled to meet state guidelines, so there's no guesswork when the driver arrives. Pickups are scheduled around your operating hours, not the other way around, and every load is tracked from your dock to final treatment, recycling, or disposal so you have documentation if you're ever asked for it. Wherever material can be recycled instead of landfilled, we recycle it. Whether you need a one-time cleanout or ongoing scheduled service, we build a plan sized to how much liquid waste your business actually generates.
