Hazardous Waste
Disposing of Household Hazardous Waste
Thanks to today’s chemical technologies, household chores are easier. Household and "do-it-yourself" products have never been more abundant ... and never more toxic. To keep our homes and environment safe, we need to use and dispose of household products in a responsible manner.
Dumping hazardous products down the drain or into a roadside storm drain can contaminate our soil and drinking water. Placing hazardous chemicals in the trash can cause serious injury to our employees and result in explosions or fires that cause severe damage to equipment. Chemicals can mix in the collection truck and some mixtures and combinations can be explosive.
