Is Manitoba 253 hazardous waste?

Not from this class alone. 253 sorts waste by its material or source. It doesn't make a load hazardous, so work out whether the waste is hazardous under Manitoba's regulation first.

For regulated hazardous waste, enter 253 in the 3-digit provincial waste class field on the Manitoba movement document. Manitoba’s registration and shipment rules apply.

What does Manitoba 253 cover?

This class is for oil emulsions, such as soluble oil, discarded cutting oil or machine oil. It follows the material and its source.
