    Household-collected waste

Use Y46 for household-collected waste as a Basel waste stream or constituent.

Basel Y waste stream for waste collected from households, such as bin waste & kerbside collections.

Is Basel Y46 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. Y46 names a Basel waste stream or constituent used in the IWIC. Federal status in Canada depends on the waste's hazards, the other classification parts, and the definitions and exclusions in SOR/2021-25.

For federally regulated international shipments, the applicant records the classification in the waste-line details of the federal notification in CNMTS. The movement rules and exclusions apply.

What does Basel Y46 cover?

It covers waste gathered from households. Its Canadian movement status still needs a separate assessment under SOR/2021-25, including the destination and intended operation.
