Disposing of Hazardous Waste: This
is the schedule and process for properly disposing of certain hazardous
wastes. Keep our aquifer and water supply safe by following these
guidelines. Electronics commonly contain lead, mercury and other toxins.
Did you know the average CRT monitor has about 7 lbs of lead in it?
Disposing in landfills potentially allows this to get into water
sources. Safe disposal cost's only $5! Read details below. |
