1. Preprinted
Labels Save Time

A Hazardous Waste label often requires the completion
of ten or more fields. Filling each out by hand can take
over 10 minutes for a typical job of labeling 10 drums.
By using preprinted labels, you can cut this time dramatically,
especially when data can be recalled from a prior project.
And, you avoid a problem with handwriting that, at times,
is not completely legible.

2. Labels Should Be Durable

Given the potential for danger, it only makes sense to
use the most durable label possible. Paper labels are
less resistant to water, sun and chemicals than vinyl
or polyester labels.

3. Use a Permanent Pen

Many "permanent pens" are anything but! Ball point pens
can be even worse, especially in the rain and sun. Use
pens or pencils with proven durability.

4. Add Arrows

Make sure that your shipment is not mishandled.

5. Clean the Surface

Labels stick best on a clean, dry surface. If possible,
we recommend using a cleaning the drum. Remove oils. Rough
up the surface slightly.
