Clean Harbors

Clean Harbors is the largest provider of environmental and industrial services in North America — hazardous and non-hazardous waste management, emergency response, industrial cleaning, remediation, and used-oil and solvent recycling through its Safety-Kleen subsidiary. It runs no developer programme: no developer portal, no API documentation, no SDK in any registry, no GitHub organisation, and no /.well-known/ document on any host. Customers use the authenticated Clean Harbors Online Services portal at clhsaas.cleanharbors.com and the EPA's RCRA e-Manifest programme, whose machine-readable surface belongs to the EPA. Two callable contracts nonetheless run on Clean Harbors hosts, both found by direct probing: an anonymous, fully introspectable GraphQL endpoint at store.safety-kleen.com fronting six brand storefronts on one Adobe Commerce instance, and an unauthenticated Job Query API at careers.cleanharbors.com that the company documents in a published llms.txt.

Clean Harbors publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Adobe Commerce, Emergency Response, Environmental Services, Fortune 1000, and GraphQL.

The Clean Harbors catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context.

Clean Harbors’ developer surface includes support, authentication, code examples, signup flow, documentation, engineering blog, and 29 more developer resources.

scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/clean-harbors: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

    (Thermo Fluids, Noble Oil, Emerald Renewable Energy, Murphy's Waste Oil and Synergy Recycling), all on one Adobe Commerce
    instance whose storeConfig reports website_name "Clean Harbors USA Website". Anonymous introspection is enabled and returned
    the complete contract on 2026-09-05 — 65 Query fields, 168 Mutation fields and 861 named types, including the Adobe Commerce
    B2B surface (companies, negotiable quotes, requisition lists and purchase-order approval flows). Catalog, category, CMS
    and store-configuration reads answer with no credential; customer-scoped fields require a bearer token issued by the generateCustomerToken
    mutation. The parallel REST surface is bearer-gated and its Swagger generator times out, so GraphQL is the only readable
    contract.

    federally standardised, is the single largest gap in its public API surface.'
