Safe Transportation of Household Hazardous Waste
When transporting materials to a Convenience Center, place containers in sturdy boxes or flat-bottom tote bags that are lined with newspaper. This will prevent spills and cross-contamination in the trunk of a car or back of a truck. Be sure to keep materials away from children and pets. Materials should be kept in the original container whenever possible. If not, place the waste in a plastic jug with a secure lid and label its contents. Do not mix liquids.
