DeKalb County welcomes county residents to participate in the 2013 Spring Household Hazardous Waste Event. The event offers residents an opportunity to dispose of their household hazardous wastes properly, free of charge.
Household hazardous waste is classified as products that contain potentially dangerous chemicals and are no longer used. These products should not be mixed with regular trash and can be potentially harmful to the environment if not disposed of properly.
DeKalb County encourages residents to take advantage of this opportunity to clear their homes of unneeded or unused household hazardous waste and to help keep county landfills and the environment safe for everyone.
