Another problem area is dumping of hazardous waste such as tires, car batteries, oil canisters, refrigerators, etc. since their handling is more expensive than that of regular waste and they pose a significant environmental pollution risk.
Probleemsed on ka metsa viidud ohtlikud jäätmed (autokummid, akud, õlitünnid, külmkapid jne), mille käitlemine on tavajäätmetest kulukam ja mis kujutavad endast suurt reostusohtu keskkonnale.
