Which wastes belong in oil waste codes?
Use the J-group descriptions for the state. The catalogues can tell apart ordinary waste oil, emulsions, interceptor waste, tarry residues and used filters. The source and the physical mixture settle the candidate.
What decides the entry in oil waste codes?
Check old transformer fluids and other possibly PCB-contaminated materials against the dedicated PCB entries. A generic oil code must not hide a listed contaminant or concentration condition.
Which exclusions and routes differ for oil waste codes?
The shared classification and movement limits for oil waste codes are on the Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, Tasmania, Australian Capital Territory and Northern Territory pages.
What do you do after choosing from oil waste codes?
Separate free oil, oily water, filters, interceptors and PCB-affected liquid. Then use the state’s collection or tracked movement route for each stream.
