Why Is Proper Disposal Necessary?

Keeping hazardous waste out of the landfill, wastewater and surrounding ecosystems is a priority of Solid Waste Management Entities. Chemicals in certain products will cause damage to the organisms that live in the area, which includes humans. Keeping hazardous wastes separated and controlled requires some effort, but is mandatory by law, as well as the right thing to do in consideration of the environment and each other.

Paint, Batteries, Pesticides, Thermostats, and Pharmaceuticals are some common hazardous wastes. See why and where to dispose of them properly.
