Waste pick-up requests

The HWM team will contact you to coordinate your request.
First-time users need to create a profile to be able to submit a request in myLab.

Spill report / Accident and incident report
If a spill occurs in your lab or work environment, immediately call McGill Security Services to initiate the hazmat response (514-398-3000 downtown, 514-398-7777 Macdonald campus), and then help us complete our report by completing a spill report.
If you were injured or spilled hazardous material on yourself, also fill out the accident and incident report.
