South County Hazardous Waste Collection Center

Overview

Common household products like aerosols, cleaners and fluorescent lamps are safe enough fresh off the store shelf, but can release toxic propellants, chemicals and mercury into our atmosphere and waterways when abandoned in garages or crushed in waste-hauling vehicles and placed in the landfill.
You may be surprised at the products in your home that have the words “danger,” “warning,” “caution” and “poison” on the label. Never dispose of these toxic household items down the sink, on the ground, down a storm drain or in your garbage. Some household products without warning labels are also considered hazardous, such as computers, compact fluorescent lamps and batteries.

Open Wednesday through Saturday,
8 a.m. – 4 p.m.
