Bruce County is offering safe disposal of household hazardous waste materials as part of their annual home and property clean-up.

All told 13 Household Hazardous Waste Collection events are happening in various locations across the county, providing residents with a convenient and environmentally responsible way to dispose of common hazardous items such as: paint and stains, propane tanks, used oil and oil filters, aerosols and solvents, batteries and antifreeze, household cleaners, fluorescent lights, fertilizers and pesticides, fuel and pool chemicals, pharmaceuticals and fire extinguishers.

Commercial, industrial, agricultural waste, PCB materials, ammunition, and flares will not be accepted. Only containers 30 litres or smaller will be accepted. Waste must be delivered in disposable containers. Containers, such as gas cans, will not be emptied and returned. Empty metal paint cans are recyclable through the blue box program.
