Household Hazardous Waste Programs and Collection Schedule
Select your town from the following list to find local dates. We will continue to update the list as new dates become available. If your town does not appear on this list, your municipality may not be holding a collection event this year. To find out when the next event might be held contact your local Department of Public Works. Household Hazardous Waste Collections generally run from April to early November. ATTENTION! COVID-19 MAY IMPACT HHW COLLECTION DATES.PLEASE CHECK WITH YOUR TOWN OR HHW FACILITY TO CONFIRM THAT THE COLLECTION WILL BE HELD ON THE DATE LISTED. MANY COLLECTIONS ARE BEING CANCELLED OR RESCHEDULED AS A PRECAUTION DUE TO COVID-19 and the dates on this page may not reflect all of the changes.
