03 Scheduled Waste Collection
Scheduled Waste collection starts with understanding the actual waste requirement.
Tell us what waste has been generated, the applicable SW code where known, the approximate quantity, collection location and current packaging or container information.
Ranama can then check the requirement against its current defined licensed scope before applicable collection and transport arrangements are discussed.

01 Before Collection
Scheduled Waste requirements should not begin with the assumption that every waste stream can be collected under the same licence or pathway.
The actual waste information needs to be understood first so the requirement can be checked against the relevant current scope.
Classification noteIf you already know the SW code, include it in your enquiry.
If the classification has not yet been confirmed, do not choose a code simply by approximation.
02 Regulatory Context
In Malaysia, Scheduled Waste is managed under the Environmental Quality (Scheduled Wastes) Regulations 2005.
The Department of Environment identifies 77 Scheduled Waste categories under the First Schedule.
That means “Scheduled Waste” should not be used as a general label for every industrial waste stream.
The Department of Environment also states that the waste generator is responsible for classifying the Scheduled Waste it generates because the generator has the detailed information about how the waste arose and the processes involved.
Responsibility remains with the generatorA collection enquiry does not transfer the waste generator’s classification responsibility to Ranama.

03 Defined Capability
Ranama’s Scheduled Waste capability operates within defined DOE / eSWIS records.
Before collection arrangements are treated as applicable, the waste classification and service requirement need to be checked against the relevant current scope.
Where the requirement falls within scope, the discussion can then move into the practical information needed for collection and transport.
Ranama’s Scheduled Waste capability is defined, not universal.
04 How to Start
Establish what waste has been generated and the process that produced it.
Provide the applicable SW code where it has already been determined by the waste generator.
The stated SW code and service requirement need to be considered against Ranama’s current applicable licensed capability.
Share the approximate quantity, location, current packaging or container information and other operational details relevant to the requirement.
Where the requirement falls within scope, the relevant collection and transport arrangements can be discussed in context.
05 Waste Codes
Ranama’s current DOE / eSWIS off-site recovery record covers a defined group of Scheduled Waste codes rather than every Scheduled Waste category.
The current 003885 listing includes:
Provide the applicable SW code in your enquiry where known so the requirement can be checked against the current scope.
A code appearing in the current scope does not remove the need to consider the actual waste and requirement.Check Your Requirement With Ranama
06 Regulatory Evidence
Off-Site Recovery
Current eSWIS licence entry 003885The current eSWIS record lists Ranama Resource Sdn Bhd under this licence type together with the defined Scheduled Waste code scope shown above.
Scheduled Waste Transport
Current eSWIS licence entry 003886The current eSWIS record lists Ranama Resource Sdn Bhd under this transporter classification together with the associated vehicle registrations maintained in the current system.
07 Relevant Proof
Certified Environmental Professional in Scheduled Waste Management
Certificate reference: CePSWaM/04017AFNOR Certification
Certificate reference: 2011/40619.4These records provide different forms of supporting evidence.
The Scheduled Waste capability itself should be supported first by the relevant DOE / eSWIS records and competent-person evidence.
ISO 14001:2015 provides environmental-management context.
ISO 14001 certification is not a substitute for the relevant Scheduled Waste licence record.View Certifications & Licences
08 Collection Enquiry Information
You do not need to have every technical answer before making an enquiry.
Start with the information already available.
09 Classification Responsibility
If the Scheduled Waste classification has not yet been established, avoid selecting a code based only on an approximate description.
The waste generator remains responsible for classification.
Where classification is uncertain, the current Department of Environment guidance should be consulted.
You can still describe the waste, the process that generated it, quantity, location and other information available to you.
An unverified SW code should simply not be presented as confirmed.
Accurate uncertaintyIf the code is not yet confirmed, say so.
Accurate uncertainty is better than an incorrect classification.
10 Practical Guidance
Our Scheduled Waste article explains the information organisations can prepare before discussing collection, including classification, quantity, packaging, storage, labelling and operational information.

Ranama’s primary business remains Industrial Container Reconditioning & Recycling.
Scheduled Waste Collection is a specialist supporting capability with its own defined regulatory and operational scope.
Where a requirement also involves industrial containers, the relevant container-lifecycle discussion can be considered separately and connected where appropriate.

Scheduled Waste is a defined category under Malaysia’s Environmental Quality (Scheduled Wastes) Regulations 2005.
The Department of Environment identifies 77 Scheduled Waste categories under the First Schedule.
The waste generator is responsible for classifying the Scheduled Waste it generates.
The Department of Environment explains that the generator has the detailed knowledge of how the waste was produced and the processes involved.
No.
Ranama operates within a defined current scope.
Provide the applicable SW code where known so the requirement can be checked before collection arrangements are discussed.
The current 003885 eSWIS record lists:
SW305, SW306, SW307, SW310, SW311, SW322, SW323, SW324, SW409, SW410, SW416, SW417 and SW418.
The current record should be rechecked whenever regulatory scope information is updated.
Yes.
Current DOE / eSWIS information lists Ranama under licence entry 003886 as:
Pengangkut: Pembawa Yang Ditetapkan
English context:
Designated Scheduled Waste transporter.
Where available, provide the SW code, waste description, how the waste was generated, approximate quantity, collection location, current packaging or container information and other relevant operational context.
Do not select a code simply by approximation.
The waste generator remains responsible for classification.
You can still describe the waste and how it was generated while the correct classification is being established.

13 Your Scheduled Waste Requirement
Tell us the SW code where known, the waste involved, approximate quantity, collection location and other information relevant to the requirement.
The first step is to determine whether the requirement falls within the current applicable scope.
