Transport of dangerous goods
Much of the hazardous waste is regarded as dangerous goods and must be sorted, labeled, packaged and transported according to The Swedish Transport of Dangerous Goods Act (SFS 2006:263) and the Transport of Dangerous Goods Ordinance (SFS 2006:311) and MSB provisions (MSBFS 2015:1) on the road and off-road transport of dangerous goods (ADR-S)
The waste classified as dangerous goods may only be transported by transporters approved for ADR transport.
Uppsala University has procured the service to take care of and transport hazardous waste. The University also has agreements with a supplier of services from a security adviser for the transport of dangerous goods. The security advisor should advise on all types of issues that have to do with the transport of dangerous goods. More information and contact information can be found on Medarbetarportalen.
