Many chemicals commonly used around the home are hazardous—either alone or
when combined with other chemicals, and need to be disposed of by professionals
trained to handle hazardous materials. Improper disposal of these materials can disrupt
the function of sewage treatment plants or private septic systems, contaminate ground
water, and harm animals and residents. Difficult to recycle -or dispose of- items can also
become harmful if left unmonitored, items like electronic waste, paint, old fuels, mercury
thermostats, etc.
