Go on-line to http://www.monroecounty.gov/ecopark/ to schedule your appointment. This Household Hazardous Waste collection is open to all Monroe County residents. Waste from businesses will not be accepted.

Up to 30 gallons of the following materials will be accepted per appointment at no charge:

· Oil-based & Latex Paint (for 1/3 gallon or less of latex paint: discard lid, add, mix kitty litter, dry, place can in trash)

· Wood Stain & Preservatives

· Automotive Fluids (antifreeze; brake, power steering and transmission fluids)

· Pesticides & Fertilizers

· Flammable Products (gasoline, kerosene, thinners, strippers, solvents)

· Household Cleaners (liquid soaps & waxes, drain cleaners, etc.)

· Driveway Sealer

· Pool & Photo Chemicals

· Rechargeable (Ni-Cad) & Button Batteries

· Mercury (thermometers, thermostats)

· Syringes/Sharps (safely packaged)

Do Not Bring: used motor oil & vehicle batteries (contact service station or retailer); Pharmaceutical wastes, Propane tanks (permanent HHW facility/ecopark only), cans with dried paint (if it rattles when shaken – remove lid and place in trash); empty containers (trash or recycle); alkaline batteries (trash); glazing/spackle & joint compounds (trash).

If residents are unable to take advantage of this mobile HHW collection, the County offers other collections throughout the year. For more information, or for business waste disposal options, go on-line to http://www.monroecounty.gov/ecopark/
