Returnable Drum Program
Introduction
Help minimize solid waste and reduce disposal costs by participating in the Kodak鈥檚 Graphic
Communications Group Returnable Drum Program. This program offers a simple and convenient way to
recycle empty chemical drums used in graphic arts processes.
How to Prepare Drums for Returns
The following guidelines are designed to assist in preparing the return of empty drums in compliance with
the shipping requirements set forth by the United States Department of Transportation (D.O.T.). As many
states and local municipalities may have different requirements, be sure to check your local regulations.
1. All city, state, and federal regulations must be complied with.
2. The drums must have contained unprocessed Kodak GCG chemicals only. The following empty
Kodak plastic drums may be returned:
鈥? 55 gallons (25 lbs)
鈥? 30 gallons (18 lbs)
鈥? 15 gallons (9 lbs)
3. The drums must be empty, with the outside free of chemicals. (According to EPA standards, the
drums must contain 1 inch or less residue or no more than 3% by weight of the total capacity of the
container for containers less than or equal to 110 gallons). It is not necessary to rinse the drums
with water鈥攋ust 鈥渆mpty鈥?. If the drums are not empty, your facility will be billed for any charges
associated with disposing of these drums and their contents. You will certify that the drums are
empty be signing the bottom of the Bill of Lading faxed to you by National Container under the
empty drum certification clause.
4. Make sure both bungs (closures) are in place and that plugs are reinserted and tightened. If
additional drum closures are needed, please contact the Kodak鈥檚 GCG EnviroServices Hotline at 1-
877-574-7274 for assistance.
5. No additional packaging is required; do not ship the drums on pallets.
6. Follow instructions for arranging the return of drums and preparing the Bill of Lading and Manifest.
Be sure to sign the empty drum certification located at the bottom of the Bill of Lading. Keep a
copy of the Bill of Lading and Manifest for your records.

Returnable Drum Program
How to Return Empty Drums
The return transportation of empty drums is one of the major elements to the success of the program.
Cooperation is needed to help us minimize transportation costs.
1. Accumulate as many drums as possible.
2. Ship a minimum of 5 drums and a maximum of 50 drums.
3. Contact National Container at 800-774-6956 when you have 5 or more drums ready to be
picked-up. Inform National Container that you have Kodak drums and need the drum return forms
faxed to your facility. You will need to provide National Container with general information such as
the company name, location, and contact information. If National Container is not the company
used for pick up, your facility will be billed for transportation.
4. National Container will fax you the following four forms and arrange for transportation:
a) A cover letter to be reviewed for instructions.
b) A Pickup Request Form
c) A preprinted Bill of Lading to be completed and signed before pickup.
d) A one-time annual Return Program Guidelines form.
5. Sign the empty drum certificate located at the bottom of the Bill of Lading, fill in the Bill of Lading
according to the instructions below, sign the Return Program Guidelines, complete the Pickup
Request Form, and fax them to National Container at 630-654-2141 ASAP to expedite the order. It
is important that a copy of each form is retained for proof of return.
6. After receiving all the forms, National Container will put in the order for pick up and the drums will
be picked up in approximately 5-7 business days. The carrier selected by National Container will
contact your facility to confirm the date of pick-up for the drums.
7. The original signed Bill of Lading needs to go to the freight carrier driver when the drums are picked
up.
How to Fill Out the Bill of Lading

regulations when filling out a Bill of Lading.
