Modernize your hazardous waste tracking.

Reduce risk, save time, and strengthen compliance with waste management software you can start using today.

30-day free trial · No credit card required

  • Classification intelligence Rules and AI draft the codes. You approve.
  • Labeling and tracking Print, scan, and move containers from any phone.
  • Guardrails and compliance The right clock starts, and every change is logged.
  • Alerts and reports Text and email alerts, plus trends across every site.

Purpose-built for U.S. waste generators. Fast enough that your team will actually reach for it mid-shift.

  • Made for the floor

    Shaped around hazardous waste work as it happens: at the drum, in the accumulation area, on pickup day. Not a waste module bolted onto an EHS suite.

  • Designed for speed

    Quick to load and short on steps, on any phone with no app to install. Checks like waste compatibility are built in, so the right way is the easy way.

  • Starts small

    Begin with one accumulation area and add the rest as you go. Fits alongside the tools and processes you already have. No rollout project, and nothing to migrate on day one.

A rules engine you can check.

Deadlines and generator status come from deterministic logic built on federal RCRA rules and state programs. The same inputs always give the same answer, and every date shows its inputs and citation.

  • Generator status, recalculated as you log waste

    VSQG, SQG, and LQG thresholds applied each calendar month, so you see which months cross into LQG and why.

  • Federal and state clocks, per facility

    Accumulation, satellite-area, weekly inspection, and manifest follow-up timing matched to each site's rules.

  • AI assists. It never decides.

    AI drafts waste profiles from documents for your review. Deadlines and generator categories never depend on it.

How RCRAReady handles hazardous waste compliance

Add what you need. It all connects.

Most violations start as floor slips: an undated drum, a missed inspection, a manifest nobody chased. In RCRAReady, every step writes to one record, so doing the work keeps you compliant and nothing is keyed in twice.

Profile every waste stream

Keep hazardous, universal waste, used oil, and state-regulated streams in one library. Upload an SDS or lab report and AI drafts the codes, characteristics, and program. Nothing goes live until someone on your team approves it.

Label, scan, and start the clock

Print QR labels, scan from any phone, and track every container by accumulation area, including SAA-to-CAA transfers. Accumulation deadlines are calculated from the dates you record.

Inspect areas in minutes

Guided weekly checklists for each area, with photos and findings. Spills, leaks, and label problems become tracked issues with an owner. Works offline and syncs when you're back in range.

Ship without the scramble

Build shipments from ready containers, run preflight checks, and keep the transporter, TSDF, and manifest tracking number on the record.

Close out every manifest

e-Manifest sync pulls the official record from RCRAInfo, reconciles it with your shipment, and tracks return copies. SMS and email alerts go out before a follow-up window closes.

Report on demand

Every action lands in an append-only audit trail. Export an inspector-ready report or raw CSV in seconds, whether it's for an inspector, a client, or leadership.

Covers the waste streams you actually have

Track RCRA hazardous waste alongside your other regulated streams, with federal and state rules applied per facility.

  • RCRA hazardous waste
  • Universal waste
  • Used oil
  • State-regulated waste
  • Non-hazardous & other regulated

Compliance is why you start. Time back is why you stay.

Once the floor work keeps the record current, it pays back every week in hours returned to your team, costs you never incur, and a program that doesn't depend on any one person remembering everything.

  • Hours back every week

    Scans and taps replace floor walks, label checks, and spreadsheet reconciliation. Records build as the work happens, so audit prep stops being a project.

    QR scanning · Reusable profiles · Bulk import · One-click exports

  • Costs you never pay

    Deadlines, generator-status changes, and manifest follow-ups show up early, before they turn into violations, rush pickups, or consultant hours spent reconstructing history.

    Deadline engine · SMS and email alerts · Generator-status tracking

  • A program that runs without heroics

    Alerts, the action queue, and the audit trail belong to the facility, not to someone's inbox. Vacations, turnover, and surprise inspections stop being emergencies.

    Shared action queue · Role-based access · Append-only history

Your first day, in three steps.

No demo or rollout needed. Build your compliance record as you work. Deadlines are running by step two.

  1. Step 1: Look up your facility

    Enter your EPA ID. RCRAReady fills in your site details and suggests waste profiles from your EPA manifest history for you to approve.

    Waste profiles suggested

  2. Step 2: Label and scan containers

    Print QR labels and scan each container once from any phone. Its accumulation clock runs from the start date you record.

    90-day clock running

  3. Step 3: Walk your weekly inspection

    The checklist walks each area's active containers, so the record stays current during an inspection you already have to do.

    Record current

Then build on it

  • Shipments and pickups
  • e-Manifest follow-up
  • Reports and exports
  • More facilities
