Description

Don't miss out on our LAST Household Hazardous Waste Collection of 2026! Proper disposal of hazardous waste is crucial to protecting public health and preserving the environment. Hazardous waste often includes materials that are flammable, corrosive, reactive, or toxic. Examples include cleaning supplies, oils, chemicals, and fertilizers, which can pose significant risks if not handled correctly. We don't want these items in our waterways!! It's important not to dispose of these items in regular trash bins or down drains, as they can contaminate water sources and harm wildlife. Porter County Residents are welcome to come to our FREE collection events to dispose of your hazardous waste. Check out portercountyrecycling.org to find the full list of accepted items. Any questions? Call 219-465-3694 and talk to our office members for answers.
