According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), hazardous waste can be disposed of in landfills only if it has been specifically authorized for hazardous waste disposal by the EPA or a state-approved landfill. Additionally, before disposing of any hazardous waste, the generator must ensure that proper protocols are met, such as labels and containers, manifests and training personnel at the landfill in how to handle the hazardous materials. To be sure that you are properly disposing of your hazardous waste in landfills, you should consult with a licensed professional who specializes in environmental regulation compliance.
