If you’re tired of seeing those old paint cans in the garage or that old jug of used motor oil in the back shed, bring them to the County's upcoming household hazardous waste collection event on Sunday, April 1st in the Santa Ynez Valley.

The event will be held from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the Santa Ynez Valley Recycling and Transfer Station, 4004 Foxen Canyon Road in Los Olivos.  Residents can drop off common household items, including automotive fluids, cleaners, paint, pesticides, and batteries, as well as unwanted electronics like computers and TVs.  You can even recycle your old CDs, DVDs, and video and cassette tapes.

Participation is free for residents in the unincorporated area and the City of Solvang.  Sorry, no Buellton residents.  Those living in Buellton should call the City of Buellton at 688-5177 for details about upcoming events in the City.
