FAQs

Because of their elevated alcohol content, hand sanitizer products are classified as ignitable, placing them within a regulated class of hazardous waste under federal and provincial regulation. Moreover, specific hand sanitizers have been subject to recalls by Health Canada and the Food & Drug, necessitating hazardous waste disposal irrespective of their expiration date.
Classified as a Class 3 Flammable liquid, hand sanitizer has the potential for combustion when concentrated at high levels. For instance, pouring around 190 liters of alcohol-based sanitizer down the drain could result in vapors combustible enough to displace manhole covers in the municipal waste system. If disposed of in a dumpster, there is a risk of a literal dumpster fire, or the garbage disposal truck may catch fire during the compaction process.
Bulk amounts of expired hand sanitizer must be transported to a secure hazardous waste disposal facility in an approved tanker truck or industrial waste management containers equipped with emergency pressure-activated vents. Drivers need to have CDLs and specialized safety training. Required Class 3 Flammable Liquids protocols include federal and provincial laws hazardous waste labels, registration, manifesting, and reporting.
