Teri--It must be that time of year for spring cleaning as I am seeing quite a few posts regarding hazardous waste disposal dates and drop offs. Such a great service to bring to everyone's attention.
This is great information to have Teri. People ask the same question about disposal of these types of things all the time here!
Recycle...re-use...re-invent... Great local post, Teri!
Teri, I think you're right. I've been certainly thinking that way.;-) Thanks for coming by. ;-)
Bill, isn't that the truth? We're always wondering where and when - when we're ready to get rid of the stuff!
Kat, thanks so much. ;-)
Hi Teri! This is excellent Local information that so many consumers call later to ask! Unfortunately this type of information is not heavily 'publicized' and we have to be the ones to get the word out!
Have a great week...
Hi Teri,
I have some paint in my garage that I need to dispose of and knowing when and where to do that safely is important.
Debe, thanks - just making them aware that this type of service exists is very important in my mind. Some don't know, and it's generally - as in this case - free. ;-)
Cynthia, when you find out where, you can share. ;-)
