How a disposal call comes together

Transport under chain of custody

Waste is transported to the region’s only authorised facility, with the chain of custody documented at every step.

Destruction & documentation

Waste is destroyed at the facility, and the master keeps evidence of where it ended up — no dependence on facilities outside Magallanes.

“Leave Antarctica as we found it.”

Where it fits in the call

Organic waste incineration is usually arranged together with waste management & recycling, as part of a Strait of Magellan transit or any port call handled by your port agency.
