Ports & Terminals · Case study
Clearing 50 tonnes of crane wire rope — and the haz-waste behind it.
A national container terminal · Manila
Port operations generate bulky, hard-to-move waste — used batteries, oil-contaminated materials, and end-of-life crane wire rope. JMR won the award to sell, haul, transport, and treat it, and keeps the haz-waste moving on schedule.

The challenge
A container terminal needed the lawful removal of hazardous waste — used batteries (M506) and oil-contaminated materials (I104) — alongside roughly 50 tonnes of end-of-life crane wire rope that's heavy, awkward, and tightly governed once it leaves the gate.
Every movement had to clear PPA hot-works permits, gate security, and strict safety sign-offs.
What JMR did.
Won the Notice of Award for the sale, hauling, transport, and treatment of ~50 tonnes of used wire rope.
Scheduled recurring hazardous-waste hauling (M506 + I104) under client-approved Permits to Transport.
Coordinated PPA hot-works permits, gate/security passes, and safety clearances so pickups never stalled at the terminal.
The outcome.
A formal award plus a repeating hauling schedule — JMR is the terminal's standing partner for regulated waste.
Because JMR purchases the recoverable scrap, the clean-up runs revenue-positive for the port.
