Household Hazardous Waste
Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) is any product labeled toxic, poison, danger, warning, caution, corrosive, flammable, combustible, or irritant. HHW should never be thrown into your household garbage, recycling, toilets, or sinks. It is also illegal to dump HHW on the ground or pour it down the storm drains. HHW can seep into the ground water, waterways, and oceans. This causes contamination of our drinking water, beach closures, and poses health hazards to swimmers.
For additional information, you can call (800) CLEANUP, (800) OILY-CAT or contact our Sewer and Trash Customer Service Representative at (909) 625-9472.
