Household Hazardous Day
Did you know, that some items that we use on a regular basis are household hazardous waste? Did you know that we should not put these items into the landfill? So when you are doing your next fall or spring cleaning, please keep in mind what is hazardous and bring them to the next Household Hazardous Waste Day.
To find out if an item is hazardous, please contact the Sanitation Department at 729-2281.
