City of Ignacio Bulk Sanitizer Disposal, Recycling and Ethanol Recover Services

Environmental Logistics, Inc. is the Ignacio, California leader in the cost effective collection, disposal and recycling of commercial or industrial amounts of hand sanitizer at the SQG, LQG, or CESQG levels.

Leading Ignacio Disposal Company for Bulk, Out-of-date Alcohol Based Sanitizer Gels and Liquids

Most of the hand-sanitizing liquids in use today are gels that are 60-95% ethyl or isopropyl alcohol–classifying them as Class 3 Flammable Liquids.

Hand sanitizers cannot be stored in Marin County office buildings, per OSHA regulations and any amounts of more than 25 gallons must be properly stored in flammable-liquid storage cabinets.

Hand Sanitizers Containing Methanol or 1-Propanol

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cited several companies and manufacturers companies for making and selling hand sanitizers that contain methanol or 1-propanol, both of which are toxic to human health and neither were approved for hand washing by the EPA:

  • Ethanol found in spirits for drinking, methanol mostly used to make fuels, solvents and antifreeze.  Referred to as “wood alcohol” or “methyl alcohol”,  methanol is colorless, highly flammable and extremely poisonous if consumed. 
  •  Used in industry, some cosmetics and antiseptics, 1-Propanol is used as a multi-purpose solvent. It’s highly flammable, harmful if congested and can damage your eyes.  Respiratory irritation and central nervous system issues can result from inhalation.

The recalled sanitizers listed here were falsely labeled as containing only ethyl alcohol. If your company purchased large volumes of any recalled sanitizer listed please call our Ignacio hazardous waste disposal office right away to schedule proper transportation and disposal.  Our Ignacio hazardous waste team can be reached 24/7 at our toll-free number at (855) 242-9628.

Ignacio (formerly Pacheco) is an unincorporated community in Marin County, California. It is located 3 miles (4.8 km) southeast of downtown Novato, at an elevation of 30 feet (9 m).

Ignacio is a neighborhood located west of Bel Marin Keys, CA. According to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), it is located at 38°04′13″N 122°32′19″W / 38.07028°N 122.53861°W / 38.07028; -122.53861, placing it north of the interchange of U.S. Route 101 and Ignacio Boulevard, in Novato.

Two authenticated Coast Miwok villages existed near Ignacio: Puyuku (south of the town) and Shotokmo-cha (to the southeast).

During the 1840s and 1850s, Ignacio was part of Rancho San Jose, a 6,659-acre (26.95 km2) land grant which Governor Alvarado awarded to Ignacio Pacheco. After Ignacio died in 1864, his estate was divided among his heirs.

During World War II, Ignacio became the site of military housing for Hamilton Air Force Base. These military houses were eventually torn down and replaced by a more suburban community.

The Ignacio post office opened in 1893, closed in 1944, and re-opened in 1961.
