Drums & Pails

---

Consider an Alternative

The preferred method of managing drums and pails is to use returnable containers - ask your vendor for options.
Some non-returnable containers may be reconditioned or recycled. Typically, the containers should be empty - nothing pourable or pumpable should remain. Containers that held certain types of hazardous materials (such as pesticides or insecticides) must be triple rinsed with an appropriate solvent. The rinsate must either be properly used or disposed as a hazardous waste.
