From the organizers:
Every home in Huntsville and Madison County has hazardous products that need to be disposed of safely. These items can be hazardous to the environment, animals and our families when they are disposed of improperly.
The goal of the Household Hazardous Waste program is to reduce the toxicity of the community’s waste stream by removing as much of the household hazardous wastes as possible. By achieving this goal, the program is reducing injuries to waste-handling personnel; lessening the risks of injuries to fire and rescue personnel due to improper storage of hazardous waste in homes; decreasing air, ground and water pollution, as well as the contamination to our local sewage treatment plants and storm drains. The program is free of charge to all residents of Madison County, the City of Huntsville, and the City of Madison.
Businesses may call 256-880-6054 concerning the Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator Program, and business disposal of hazardous waste.
You can drop off household hazardous waste on the first Saturday of each month from 8:00 a.m. to Noon (second Saturday if major holiday on Monday or Friday) at the Handle with Care Collection Center at the Huntsville Landfill, 4100 Leeman Ferry Road. For special assistance, call 256-880-6054. Coming SOON! NEW HOURS AND LOCATION
