What is Household Hazardous Waste?
You don’t have to look far to find product that quickly become household hazardous waste. Household hazardous waste is anything in and around your home that is poisonous, flammable, corrosive or toxic. It is many of your cleaning supplies, yard care chemicals, pesticides, fuels, batteries, used oil and antifreeze. We cannot accept explosives, radioactive materials, or old tires.
- To reduce the hazardous waste that we generate, keep these things in mind,
- Make sure you need the chemical before you buy it
- Buy only what you need. Give any leftovers to friends, neighbors, community groups, etc.
- Buy less-toxic products and use safe alternatives when possible.
- Toxic substances - antifreeze, batteries, fluorescent light tubes, fuels, gasoline, oil, paint, pesticides, transmission fluid, yard care chemicals, and other chemicals.
