Examples include items such as pool cleaning chemicals, motor oils, pesticides, and paints or varnish. Properly disposing of HHW can be difficult, but it is an important way to protect the county’s high-quality natural resources.
The cost per vehicle will be $30 and registration is required in advance. The program is limited to 300 resident vehicles. Attendees must be residents of Pike County, Pa. and hazardous waste from businesses will not be accepted.
