In 2025, the new year, we think of New Year’s Resolutions. They do not have to be complicated.
Identifying and safely disposing of Hazardous Waste is probably not on most people’s list.
Old chemicals, paint, and cleaning supplies do degrade and then leak. I address this topic a lot in my work. It can be a hazard to you and your home. The leaking chemicals can make a mess and cause unhealthy fumes and even a fire. Transport these old chemicals in a leak proof tray or container.
Your county landfill can either take these items or suggest a company that will. My landfill takes hazardous waste every Saturday from April to Nov. They have also started taking them in the ‘off season’ periodically. Do you know where and when your community takes old chemicals?
Keep your home safe and healthy. Dispose of chemicals, cleaning products and paint responsibly. Store chemicals in a plastic or metal tray in case there is a leak.
Bonus! Free up valuable space in your home and garage.
Have a Happy and Safe New Year!
