This is not for all County residents only the Chosen Few.
“Household hazardous waste (old paint, motor oil, chemicals, batteries)”
Well, don’t bother to put that stuff out. When they did my neighborhood clean-up last month, they picked up a mattress, a broken chair, and a broken dishwasher (in the new dishwasher’s box). However, they put aside three one-gallon bottles of “hazardous waste” which was used automotive radiator fluid (not from a flush). Therefore, those bottles are still outside by my garage door. I will have to bring them to the county waste disposal by the landfill when I have more stuff to dispose of.
I sure hope 1 day that the county will have a day to do this on the Schifko Rd. area. It has gotten out of hand. To many Fred and Lamont’s.
