HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE DROP-OFF DAYS

Baltimore City Department of Public Works (DPW) Acting Director Matthew W. Garbark reminds citizens that the Household Hazardous Waste Drop-Off event for July starts today, Friday, July 10, and continues on Saturday, July 11.  (This is a correction to the dates noted in the 2020 DPW Calendar.) The event will be held from 9:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. on both days, July 10 and 11, at the Northwest Citizens' Convenience Center, located at 2840 Sisson Street. 

 

Residents who come to the July Household Hazardous Waste Drop-Off Event are asked to wear a face covering and to stay inside their vehicles. This event is for Baltimore City residents only, and is not intended for businesses or commercial users.

 

Household hazardous waste includes materials such as household cleaning products, bleach, ammonia, batteries, solvents, oil-based paint, etc. Latex paint is not considered hazardous and should be dried out and disposed of with your regular trash, or donated. A full list of materials that are acceptable/unacceptable can be found on the Department of Public Works website. 

 

Additional Household Hazardous Waste Drop-off events are also scheduled to take place at the Northwest Citizens' Convenience Center, at 2840 Sisson Street, through October.  These events will be held on the first consecutive Friday and Saturday of the month as follows:
