Household Hazardous Waste Collection Events
Why bring your household hazardous wastes to a scheduled event? Household products containing toxic chemicals, like pesticides, oil
based paints, solvents, cleaning products, weed killers and automotive batteries can be a threat to people and the environment if improperly discarded. Never throw these materials into the trash, as the toxic chemicals may harm sanitation workers, or result in fires in collection vehicles. It is also not safe to pour them into a sink or storm drain as they can end up in the environment polluting the air, water, or soil.
