Household chemicals consolidated under a Victorian Government program. Chemicals collected another way do not fit.

Is Victoria T170 priority waste?

Yes. T170 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 T170 as the Schedule 5 waste code in the Waste Tracker record. The tracking exceptions and designation and household rules still apply.

What does Victoria T170 cover?

Household chemicals gathered through a Victorian Government program. Both parts are needed. They must be household chemicals, and they must have been consolidated through that program.

Are collected household chemicals Victoria T170?

CodeWhen it fits
T170The household chemicals were consolidated through a Victorian Government program.

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 T170 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.
