HHW Pilot Home Pick-Up is Here!

Public Works is offering a pilot program that assists solid waste residential customers with the proper disposal of their household hazardous waste items (HHW).

HHW should NOT be placed in the trash or recycling containers for safety reasons. Hazardous materials need to be properly disposed of to protect human health and the environment, as well as protect residents and employees from harm and hazards caused by these toxic materials.

HHW Guidelines

Containing your HHW: All items must be secured in sealed leakproof containers, and then placed in a box clearly labeled “HHW”. If you have a damaged bucket or container with hazardous liquids that is leaking or may leak, please safely place it in a labeled and sealed, leakproof container to avoid spills.
Placement: Please ensure the box of items is placed outside next to your garage or front door, clearly visible and accessible to staff. DO NOT place any HHW at the curb, in the street or on the sidewalk.
All HHW items will be collected between the hours of 7am and 5pm. You will not be given a specific collection time, so please ensure your items are placed out for collection by 7am on your collection day.
Only 1 HHW Home Pick-up collection is allowed per Solid Waste customer for the duration of the pilot.
