Serving Dallas, TX
Local service for Dallas and Dallas County
Dallas mixes semiconductor and electronics manufacturing, aerospace and defense contracting, large distribution operations and major hospital systems. Streams range from etchants and photoresist to damaged goods and clinical waste.
Typical generators in the Dallas area: Electronics and semiconductor work, aerospace and defense, distribution and logistics, healthcare systems. That mix decides which waste codes show up and which treatment capacity matters, so a Dallas quote is built from your process, not a rate card.
What we handle
Waste streams we see most in Dallas
Each stream has its own treatment route. Here is where the ones that come up most often locally actually go.
Electronics etchants, acids and photoresist
Electronics process waste mixes spent acids, solvents and photoresist chemistry. Acids are neutralized or recovered and solvents go to fuels blending. Incompatible streams stay in separate containers from collection to treatment.
Acid and caustic wasteAerospace surface treatment waste
Plating wastewater sludge is often F006 listed, and spent baths can carry cyanide or hexavalent chromium. Metals are recovered where concentrations justify it; otherwise the waste is stabilized and sent to a permitted landfill.
Plating and metal finishing wasteDistribution centre damaged goods and aerosols
Damaged, returned and leaking products are sorted by hazard class at your dock. Aerosols, corrosives, oxidizers and lithium batteries are pulled apart, and each goes to the lowest cost compliant outlet, recycling first.
Off-spec and damaged productClinical and research laboratory chemicals
A technical professional inventories the chemicals on site, segregates them by compatibility and packs them into DOT-rated containers. Unknowns are field tested first. Each drum goes to the treatment its contents need, usually incineration or fuels blending.
Lab pack servicesOne company, every service line
Everything Greer handles in Dallas
Most sites generate more than one kind of regulated waste. One company covers all of it, so there is one contact and one set of records.

Online trainingTexas regulations
The rules that apply to Dallas sites
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) runs the hazardous waste program in Texas through its Waste Permits Division, Industrial and Hazardous Waste Section. EPA has authorized the state program, so 30 Texas Administrative Code Chapter 335 is the rulebook your site is inspected against. It adopts the federal RCRA framework and adds requirements of its own.
Where Texas goes beyond the federal baseline
- Texas uses its own waste classification system with eight digit waste codes in addition to federal EPA codes
- Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3 industrial solid waste classifications apply to non hazardous industrial waste, which the federal program does not regulate
- Texas requires annual waste summaries and notification of waste streams, which is broader than the federal baseline
- The state hosts extensive commercial treatment capacity including Class I injection wells and commercial incineration
How it works
From first call to closed record in Dallas
North Texas. Regional routing across the Dallas Fort Worth metroplex.
Tell us what you have
Send an SDS, an old manifest, a process description or photos of the containers. A technical professional reviews it, not a call center.
Characterize and profile
Process knowledge, backed by lab analysis where it is needed, sets the federal and Texas waste codes and builds the waste profile.
Name the treatment path
Before anything is scheduled you see where each stream is going and why: recovery, fuels blending, incineration, stabilization or injection.
Package and label
Containers, labels and markings meet DOT and RCRA rules. Our crews can pack on site, including lab packs and unknowns.
Pickup and transport
Greer's licensed transport carries the load under a signed manifest, with the right placards and shipping papers for every hazard class.
Close the record
The signed manifest comes back from the receiving facility, followed by the certificate of treatment. Your file is ready for TCEQ.
Generator status
What your generator category means in Dallas
Your obligations depend on how much hazardous waste the site generates in a calendar month. Most of the cost and paperwork follows from this one number.
Very small quantity generator
100 kg or less a month, and no more than 1 kg of acute hazardous waste. The lightest rules, but the waste still has to reach a facility authorized to take it.
VSQG requirementsSmall quantity generator
More than 100 kg and less than 1,000 kg a month. Up to 180 days on site (270 if the nearest treatment facility is over 200 miles away), and re-notification every four years.
SQG requirementsLarge quantity generator
1,000 kg or more a month, or over 1 kg of acute hazardous waste. A 90-day accumulation limit, a contingency plan, annual training records and periodic reporting.
LQG requirementsAn episodic event such as a cleanout or a turnaround can push a site into a higher category for a month. Tell us before it happens and we will plan the paperwork with you.
The paperwork
What every Dallas shipment leaves behind
The record is the deliverable. Every shipment produces:
- Signed Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest, EPA Form 8700-22
- Land disposal restriction notification for every regulated stream
- Waste profile with assigned codes and the supporting basis
- Certificate of destruction or treatment from the receiving facility
- Documentation that holds up to a TCEQ inspection
Keep these for at least three years. Manifests, LDR notices and test results are the first things an inspector asks for, and the retention clock is extended while an enforcement action is open.

Straight answers
Dallas questions
Do you actually service Dallas?
Yes. North Texas. Regional routing across the Dallas Fort Worth metroplex. Greer holds hazardous waste transporter authorization in Texas and has operated across the Southeast since 2001.
Which agency regulates my Dallas site?
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, through the Waste Permits Division, Industrial and Hazardous Waste Section. Texas is authorized by EPA to run the RCRA program, so state rules at 30 Texas Administrative Code Chapter 335 apply in place of the federal regulations.
How is a quote put together?
Per stream, not per site. Volume, container type, water content, BTU value and the distance to the receiving facility all move the number. You get the treatment path named, plus the recovery option where one exists.
We only generate a few drums a year. Is Dallas still worth a stop?
Yes. Small and very small quantity generators are scheduled onto consolidated routes, so a few drums share a truck instead of paying for a dedicated run.
Can one company take our hazardous and medical waste?
Yes. Greer is a licensed hazardous waste and medical waste transporter, and medical waste runs through Bio Med Solutions, our medical division. The two travel on separate paperwork, as the rules require, but you deal with one company.
What if something spills or goes wrong at our Dallas site?
Call. An urgent situation is a phone call to a technical professional, not a ticket in a queue. We will tell you what to do first and what we can send.
