1. Canisters of waste, sealed in special casks, are shipped to the site by truck or train. 2. Shipping casks are removed, and the inner tubes with the waste are placed in steel, multilayered storage containers. 3. An automated system sends storage containers underground to the tunnels. 4. Containers are stored along the tunnels, on their sides. Source: US Nuclear Regulatory Commission
