Untreated medical waste, hazardous waste, liquids, yard waste, car batteries, beverage containers, whole tires and motor oil cannot be disposed of in a Michigan landfill according to state law. In-house screening and waste approval programs implemented by the landfill operators and regular inspections conducted by the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality work to ensure compliance with this ban.
