Why Red Arc Exists
We built Red Arc to make hazardous waste disposal accessible — not just for large generators with dedicated EHS staff, but for the operations manager who has seventeen other things on his plate and needs an answer today.
The large waste companies have scale. What they've lost is responsiveness. When private equity gets involved, the first thing to go is the person who actually knows your account. The people who remember your chemistry, remember your pickup schedule, remember that your Q4 shutdown always generates a surge of solvent waste — those people get replaced by a ticketing system.
Red Arc is the alternative — a team with hard-won technical knowledge, an in-house fleet, and no corporate layers between you and a decision. We'll have a quote back to you before the national guys finish routing your voicemail.
Three Principles
Every client engagement gets measured against these. They're why we keep the clients we keep.
Chemists run determinations. Drivers are HAZMAT certified. Waste codes reflect the chemistry, not the convenient pathway. We tell you the right answer even when it isn't the cheapest — and we explain why.
You get the same point of contact for the life of the relationship. Pricing is line-itemized. Surprises show up in weather reports, not invoices. If something goes sideways, you hear it from us first.
Every TSDF we route to is audited for compliance history and operational practice. Reclamation and recycling are preferred when markets support it. Disposal is the last step, not the default one.
Our mission is to make compliant, cost-effective waste management accessible to every generator.

People Who Answer Their Phone
Red Arc is staffed by certified chemists, RCRA-trained operations leads, DOT-certified drivers, and the kind of senior operators who know TCEQ rulemakings by section number. The bench is deep; the access is direct.

TSDF Vetting Isn't Optional
We audit every facility we route to. Compliance record, operational capacity, technical specialization, cost — all of it reviewed on an ongoing basis. Your waste doesn't go to the facility that's cheapest on a given day. It goes where it belongs.
If a facility's record degrades, we re-route. That's the difference between a brokerage that treats TSDFs as interchangeable and one that treats them as part of the compliance stack.
