Hazardous Waste Warning
Wastes in this section are dangerous to you and the environment. Handle them carefully and dispose of them properly.
Legally small hazardous waste generators can only transport 15 gallons of wet or 125 pounds of dry hazardous materials at per month. If you have more waste than this, you need to use a Hazardous Waste Hauler like those listed on this page. Read about the regulation.
What if you have a lot of Hazardous Waste?
For businesses and households that generate more than 15 gallons or 125 pounds of hazardous waste per month, there is only one option - Hazardous Waste Haulers. This is because if you generate more hazardous waste than what is listed above you are not considered a Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG).
The businesses listed on this page accept a wide range of hazardous wastes, but not everything. Please take a look at their individual pages to see what they will and will not accept, and contact them directly if you have questions.
