Full Notification

Many pesticides, weed killers, automotive products, cleaning products and hobby supplies that we use in our homes contain toxic chemicals that become hazardous waste. If we simply toss these products in the garbage, pour them down the drain, or dump them onto the ground, the result can be pollution to our soil and water.

Washington Township will accept household hazardous waste, free of charge, from Township residents on this Saturday, August 14th from 9AM to 1 PM in an effort to assure proper disposal of these materials.
