As of 2023, the road freight volume of the treatment and disposal of hazardous waste sector in France stood at 50.0 thousand units. The forecast for the subsequent years indicates a gradual decline, with volumes decreasing from 49.0 thousand units in 2024 to 46.0 thousand units by 2028.

Future trends to watch for include:
• Increasing regulatory pressure could drive further efficiency and technology adoption in waste management logistics.
• Shifts towards more sustainable practices might impact the volume of hazardous waste generated, influencing freight demand.
• Economic shifts or industrial changes could affect the activity levels within the hazardous waste sector impacting freight volumes.
