Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Do you have stuff that’s too bad for the trash?
South Shore Recycling Cooperative will host a household hazardous waste
collection in Hanover this spring. Residents may attend at no charge.
(Commercial generators, please call ahead to 1-617-852-3086 to arrange
disposal and payment. Please bring a check.)
The collection is scheduled from 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. on 4/25 at the
Hanover Transfer Station, 118 Rockland Street (Rt. 139).
Bring: Oil based paint, stains, solvents, gasoline, automotive fluids,
pesticides, photography and pool chemicals, acids, bases, and poisons in
secure, labeled containers.
Do not bring: industrial, pathological and medical waste, radioactive
materials, pressurized gas cylinders or explosives.
Oil based paint, propane tanks, motor oil, antifreeze, medical sharps, auto
and rechargeable batteries, and fluorescent lamps are collected regularly
by some towns and some retailers. Residents should use those services if
available. Go to ssrcoop.info, click on “Other Stuff”.
Latex paint is messy, but not hazardous. If not recyclable as described
below, absorb liquid with cat litter and dispose in trash.
Usable leftover latex paint is accepted and recycled into new paint
products at The Paint Exchange LLC of Rockland for a small fee. To see if
your paint qualifies for recycling, and for hours of operation, go to
ssrcoop.info/, click on “Latex Paint”, or call 781-545-1272.
PSC Environmental will conduct the collections. For more information, call
the South Shore Recycling Cooperative at 781-329-8318, or go to
ssrcoop.info, click on “Hazardous Waste”. For more information, please
contact 781.329.8318 or ssrecyclingcoop@verizon.net .
