We use chemicals to clean our homes, wash our clothes, fix our cars, and maintain our lawns. In fact, as Americans we generate
1.6 million tons of household hazardous waste each year. These products can be harmful to our health and the health of our environment if they are used, stored or disposed of improperly.
If you have something and you’re not sure whether it requires special disposal or whether it can be recycled, reused or disposed of with household trash visit
