INFORMATION ABOUT HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE

Many products that we use regularly in our homes, workshops, and garages can cause problems for us and our environment. When discarded improperly, these products can become hazardous wastes. To help dispose of these materials safely, the Solid Waste Authority built a Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility for Oneida and Herkimer County residents. To find out more about the facility, click here.

This facility is designed to serve Oneida and Herkimer residential users and selected businesses. There is no charge for residents to drop off household hazardous wastes.

SERVICES FOR SELECTED BUSINESSES

Small quantity hazardous waste generators in Oneida and Herkimer Counties that are considered conditionally-exempt may use the facility. These include small businesses, schools and farms. Businesses of all sizes can arrange to drop off certain universal wastes such as fluorescent bulbs and batteries. For more information, click here.
