There are so many types of objects that are classified as hazardous waste that no one description can encompass their properties other than that they cause harm to humans or animals.
There are three, and only three, packing groups defined in the regulations for transportation of hazardous materials (dangerous goods).
A hazardous material is a hazardous material because of its physical or chemical properties, not because of the amount that may be present. Smaller quantities, however, may be considered to be insignificant, but the amount depends on the particular material.
There are many potential properties that are not solely defined by individual tissues and organs, such as systemic regulation, feedback mechanisms, and emergent properties at the organismal level. These properties emerge from the interactions between different tissues and organs, along with environmental factors, and contribute to the functioning of the organism as a whole.
WHMIS (Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System) is a Canadian classification system used to group chemicals with similar properties or hazards. See below link:
In the scheme used for transport of hazardous materials there are eight (8) classes of hazardous materials.

Identifying hazardous waste and understanding its generation typically occurs in three phases: identification, characterization, and classification. In the identification phase, potential hazardous materials are recognized based on their properties. The characterization phase involves analyzing the waste to determine its chemical and physical characteristics. Finally, the classification phase categorizes the waste according to regulatory standards to ensure proper handling and disposal.
