Household Hazardous Wastes |
|
Thanks to all the agencies that participated in our annual Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day. About 500 residences braved the weather to bring their old or unused household chemicals to properly dispose of them so they wouldn't pollute our environment. If you missed our collection day, you still have several options for disposing of household chemicals in Utah County. |

| Other Disposal Options: | |
| Recycling used oil: | Many oil change shops or auto parts stores (such as AutoZone, Checker and Jiffy Lubes, Walmart and others) accept up to 5 gallons of non-contaminated oil free of charge. |
| Usable paint, building supplies, metal, operating appliances: | Habitat for Humanity (801-344-8527 or www.habitatuc.org) |
| Medications: | http://medicationdisposal.Utah.gov or www.CleanOutTheCabinet.org |
| Batteries, tires, old electronics, tvs, etc.: | Solid Waste Districts (see For More Information below) |
