Household Hazardous Waste Collection
I don’t know about you, but I often come across things in my garage and wonder “How in the world do I get rid of this?” Sometimes it’s a can of rust remover while other times it’s a pesticide I used in my garden. Typically I set the product back in my garage and forget about it until the next major clean sweep…and then the cycle continues! But, I have a solution for you! On Saturday, September 11th the Loudoun County Department of Construction & Waste Management will host a household hazardous waste collection from 8:30am until 2:30pm at the Harmony Middle School in Hamilton.
What is considered hazardous waste and what will they accept? Household batteries, furniture polishes, oil-based paints and stains, and fluorescent light bulbs are just a few of the items that you can dispose of. For a complete list, and for more information, please visit:

So clean out that garage or shed and dispose of your hazardous waste properly and safely!
