Soilex Corporation accepts non-hazardous soils and other industrial waste, which may be contaminated with virgin and non-virgin petroleum products.  The Chesapeake facility also accepts non-hazardous sludges, which frequently include tank bottoms, car wash/OWS sludges and numerous industrial and manufacturing process wastes.

The facilities will not accept municipal waste or those materials that are classified as hazardous, explosive, or infectious.

Prior to the receipt of any material, customers must complete a Material Characterization Form and return it to the office for approval.  Lab analysis, if available, should be submitted at this time.  The requested lab parameters for each type of material are listed below.

• Customers delivering material containing virgin petroleum contaminants (unused motor oil, unused hydraulic oil, gasoline, diesel fuel etc) must furnish lab analysis for Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) using EPA SW method 5035/8015.  If the customer cannot furnish this analysis prior to delivery, Soilex will perform the analysis upon receipt.

• Customers delivering material containing non-virgin petroleum contaminants (used motor oil, used hydraulic oil) or any unknown contaminants must furnish lab analysis for the following parameters:

•         Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) by EPA SW-846 method 5035 / 8015

•      BTEX by EPA SW-846 method 8021B

•         Extractable Organic Halogens (EOX) by EPA method 9020M

•         TCLP Metals or Total Metals

Please collect at least one representative sample from each project location.

Once the material is approved for receipt at any of our facilities, Soilex will prepare a Non-Hazardous Shipping Manifest or similar document.  We will deliver these documents to your office, job site or other location as needed to facilitate the disposal process.
