PERMANENT HOUSEHOLD

HAZARDOUS WASTE COLLECTION SITE

                            Who to Call, Where to Go, What to Bring

It’s no longer necessary to store hazardous material in the garage waiting for a collection event to properly dispose of harmful household products.  The San Joaquin County permanent Household Hazardous Waste Consolidation Facility is now open for business every Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The facility is located near the Stockton Metropolitan Airport at 7850 South R.A. Bridgeford St.  (From Airport Way turn east onto C.E. Dixon and south on South R.A. Bridgeford.)  The facility is open and free to all residents of San Joaquin County.

Some of the materials that will be accepted include unused pesticides, fertilizers, pool chemical, auto fluids, paints and batteries.  There is no charge for residential disposal. 

Proper disposal of hazardous materials at the facility will help to protect the environment by keeping harmful products off our streets, out of our storm drains and waterways. 

For more information call the San Joaquin County Solid Waste Division at 468-3066.

REMEMBER
Only Rain Down the Drain!
