Author: Steve | Category: Hazardous material certification, Hazmat school, What is considered a confined space

The transport of hazardous waste and other such materials is nothing if not necessary here in the United States. After all, we produce it and once we’re done using it, it has to go somewhere. Most of this hazardous waste is made up of products like gasoline and other flammable liquids, materials that actually account for as much as 85% of the hazardous waste (by weight) transported all throughout this country. However, of course, there are many other types of hazardous waste out there, and many professionals that are trained to move it to its final destination.

So how exactly are hazardous waste and other such hazardous materials moved? While there are a number of different methods for the transport of these hazardous products, it is typically done by truck. In fact, very nearly 95% (around 94%, to be more exact) of all hazmat shipments are conducted via truck on a daily basis. Each and every year, a total of 11 billion tons of freight are transported by truck just throughout the (more…)

Not only is this good for business, it’s good for people’s health. Clean environments are more than just checking off an obligation on your chore list.

It’s a way to make sure everyone’s feeling good, at the end of the day.

Being a home owner involves a lot of responsibilities when it comes to the upkeep of the home, from caring for the interior of the home to the siding to, of course, the roof. All too often, however, home owners here in the United States forget about their windows and doors. This can end up costing them a lot of money in the long run, as windows and doors alone result in a great amount of heat loss. And when there is that level of heat loss, especially during the winter months, your energy bills will go up, as your heating systems will need to overcompensate to keep your home at the desired temperature.

In fact, simply using window tint to decorate windows can make a huge difference in your energy savings.
