HHWC Safety Information
For the safety of all involved, please obey these special rules. They are to protect your safety and yours. If any of these instructions are unclear please call before the day of the event for clarification.
- Do not exit the vehicle at any time. There can be no exceptions.
- Household hazardous waste must be stored in the trunk of sedans or in the hatchback area. Nothing will be permitted to be taken out of any of the passenger doors of the vehicles.
- For SUVs and minivans, household hazardous waste should be stored in the area of the rear hatch.
- Please do not store items that you intend to drop-off for HHWC in any container (i.e. storage bin, clothes hamper) that you are not willing to dispose of. We will not be able to return containers to vehicles. The exception to this rule are items such as fuel containers/gas cans. If you would like a fuel container returned please tape a message to the can that can easily be seen by workers.
- Please proceed through the area slowly and cautiously, paying attention to all directions provided by HHWC staff.
- For the safety of our staff, we ask that you do not bring animals with you. We have had staff nearly bitten and scratched in the past by normally timid pets. The addition of personal protective equipment may alarm even the most docile animal.
Thank you for taking time to read this safety information. It is critical to keeping everyone safe!
