International Waste Transport

Globalised markets involve the trans-border transportation of waste.

It goes without saying that waste should be disposed of at its point of origin. However the safe and environmentally correct disposal of waste is not possible in all countries, which means that the trans-border transportation of waste over long distances is sometimes necessary and appropriate.

The "Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and their Disposal" is the international agreement governing the trans-border transport of dangerous waste material.

At Glomb, we provide 100% compliance with Basel Convention requirements by offering our customers intermodal transportation of waste as well as the highest safety standards. The experienced and correct observation of notification procedures is just as important for us as is the complete documentation process.

In line with the Basel Convention and German legislation (§§ 53 and 54 Krw / AbfG) we move waste throughout Germany as well as internationally.

Waste management today is evolving more and more into resources management. Supplies of primary raw materials are not inexhaustible and so it is not only essential but also cost-effective to carry out the trans-border transportation of recyclable materials in an environmentally friendly way.

Waste Brokerage
In cooperation with local waste disposal services within the local vicinity, we can provide waste producers with storage capacity as well as appropriate services for the transport and disposal of waste and hazardous waste - all in strict compliance with German legal requirements (§§ 53, 54 KrW/AbfG).

Damage Management

To complement our actual forwarding services we also offer damage management concepts which give you additional security when it comes to the movement of waste products. Damaged containers, faulty packaging or incorrect cargo stowage can lead to substantial delays in the supply chain as well as mountains of time-consuming bureaucracy - especially when dealing with sensitive commodities.

In Bremerhaven our damage management team offers you instant support in the event of an accident. Our mobile task force can be ready for action at short notice to protect your interests in the overseas port of Bremerhaven.
