Solid and Hazardous Waste Transporters



Transporters of all solid and hazardous waste in, through or out of the state of Delaware are required to first obtain a transportation permit.

In Delaware, the Department’s Solid and Hazardous Waste Management Section issues permits to transport solid waste and hazardous waste, but it does not provide trash or waste collection services. Trash collection is either provided by the local government or individuals can hire a private waste hauler. Delawareans also have the option to self haul by taking their household trash to a landfill, transfer station transfer station or collection station collection station. Hazardous waste must be transported by a Delaware permitted hazardous waste transporter.
