My one and only trip back in 2016 to household hazardous waste was great. We had just purchased a fixer upper north of Quindaro and I can't stress enough how much work it was for a freshly turned elderly couple to do. All the cleaning and painting......jeez, I thought it would never end. Now, it's my opinion that the entire house needs painted again. Susan Sergheyev After several trips to hazardous waste, I could almost tell you what isle which of the free stuff is,(in one place particular bldg. Everything is free. However, some isles have varnish, small paint cans, floor stripper,bug fogger, bug spray,actually- anything someone decides they don't want and drop off. Also, for $15. You can get 5 gallons of white paint which my husband and I found out that taking into a Lowe's or Home Depot directly to the paint department you pick a shade card and they'll tint it for you. So all and all, H.W. is a huge bargain

I have visited this facility about once/year for the last 10 years, and without fail everyone is very friendly and helpful. This is one of those things you don't have to do very often, but it is a pleasant experience!
