This page presents the six mixed waste categories covered by the Broad Spectrum Basic Ordering Agreements (BOA). It also lists the appropriate vendor for each mixed waste category. You can find detailed information each vendor's treatment capabilities and facilities on the next page (Vendor Description). You can find a summary of each vendor's waste acceptance criteria on the Comparison of Waste Acceptance Criteria page.
