TriHaz Solutions

We have deep experience in the waste industry and have seen what can happen when hazardous waste is not properly handled. We identified a market and quickly stepped in to fill it, with a company large enough to handle the job . . . and small enough to care!

Quick, dependable response is crucial to managing waste streams. Our customers – both large and small – have the confidence that comes from partnering with a professional, local team for medical waste disposal. David Crump, Director of Environmental Services at Huntsville Hospital System, says: “TriHaz Solutions is able to competently handle the large volume of waste produced by our hospital system. They are efficient and timely, and we trust them to do what they say they will do.”

Some customers have switched to TriHaz from larger, impersonal companies. Maury Regional Medical Center in Columbia, Tennessee made a smooth transition to better service, according to Mike Short, Director of Safety & Environmental Services. “We switched to TriHaz Solutions from a larger, national company. The transition was smooth and managing our medical waste has become much easier. Best of all, the service is great, and fees are reasonable. Their drivers are friendly and courteous, which is an added bonus. We’re glad we made the switch.”

Small customers such as QuickCare Clinic in Huntsville, Alabama receive the same, personable attention. Medical Director Dr, Allen Campbell says, “We are a smaller customer, requiring a pickup only every other week or so. However, we are treated as a valued customer and appreciate the timely, dependable service we receive.”

The transportation, treatment, and disposal of hazardous waste and RMW (regulated medical waste) is governed by stringent guidelines. We are the only regulated waste solutions provider in North Alabama and the Tennessee Valley with our own treatment facility. This new, state-of-the-art medical waste treatment facility delivers the highest standard of sterilization. TriHaz meets and exceeds the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and state environmental agencies’ regulations and guidelines. Liability for biohazardous waste generators increases with every extra mile their waste has must travel. Our convenient location means less time on the road, which means less risk. We serve customers in Alabama, Tennessee, and the Southeast.

The TriHaz Team is fully engaged to support healthcare organizations with custom, smart solutions and fair pricing. Our better-than-industry standards start with technology investments and chain-of-custody protocols that deliver a seamless, one-stop solution for managing medical waste. We can safely retrieve, transport, and properly dispose of hazardous and universal hazardous waste as well. We further ensure compliance with our chain of custody protocols and industry gold-standard tracking system. Accurate documentation and auditing, and increased efficiency means better management and more process control…further reducing generator risk.

Our goal is to reduce our customers’ risk and protect their employees and patients. Another way we help accomplish that goal is through education. We offer convenient, line OHSA, DOT, and HIPAA compliance training for customers and their employees. The blog on our website is a great informational resource and we have downloadable, printable guides to help make the process of managing hazardous waste easier. Some of our handy guides include the “Pharmaceutical Waste Handling Guide and “Medical Waste Handling Guide” (perfect for printing and posting, with at-a-glance sorting information) and the “Buyer’s Guide to Hazardous Waste Management Services.”

TriHaz also provides Secure Document Destruction services, including scheduled shredding, on-demand shredding (one-time purge service), and specialty shredding. Our secure document shredding services provide regulatory compliant document storage containers and reliable pickup, transportation, and destruction. We offer a one-stop solution when these services are combined with our medical waste service. Streamlining to cut down the number of vendors who visit is a great way to reduce risk and disruption to office environments. Plus, using one vendor means there is only one invoice, for easy billing. According to Jeremy Gaertner, Clinical Director at The Orthopaedic Center, “The Orthopaedic Center has 21 locations across Alabama and Tennessee, and TriHaz Solutions has managed our medical waste for several years. Before TriHaz, we had to use several vendors for our different locations, and with their bundled services, we can include secure document destruction. This is much more efficient, with one pickup and one invoice. Plus, we have no worries about compliance since our waste is being properly transported, treated, and disposed.”

Free, custom audits are provided to quickly identify needs based on each customer’s unique operational standards and regulatory requirements. Our modern fleet consists of various sized trucks and trailers, which helps TriHaz deliver a flexible and scalable service. We have a vehicle suited for every pickup situation and space. We provide local, integrated waste services from pickup to disposal of regulated medical waste, hazardous waste, pharmaceutical waste, and universal waste.
