Clinical and related waste, including biomedical waste. Medicine, cytotoxic and production waste have their own neighbouring codes.

Is Victoria R100 priority waste?

Yes. R100 is pre-classified priority waste, so no mirror assessment decides its Schedule 5 status. Transactions and transport are both reportable.

Where the duty applies, enter R100 as the Schedule 5 waste code in the Waste Tracker record. The tracking exceptions and designation and household rules still apply.

What does Victoria R100 cover?

Clinical and related waste, including biomedical waste, that items 97–99 of the Table don't take. Victoria’s clinical-waste definition decides which healthcare streams count as related waste. The label alone names no material or treatment process.

Is clinical waste Victoria R100?

CodeWhen it fits
R100The waste meets Victoria’s description of clinical or related waste.

Name the waste itself before choosing a code for something in it. A chemical in soil or another material doesn't settle which description goes on the load record.

What does a Victoria R100 load need before it moves?

For a reportable transaction, the producer creates the Waste Tracker record before dispatch. A transporter or accredited consigner can do this for the producer, who stays accountable and keeps a copy. Arrange the transporter and receiving site first.

Record the code, an accurate description, form, amount, packages, treatment, industry, dispatch date and the parties involved. Add dangerous goods details where they apply. The driver records collection and delivery, and the receiver records receipt. Priority waste going to landfill, and soil that is priority waste, also needs the disposal category that applies.
