Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day

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.

Collection is scheduled from 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. as follows:
4/30 Hanover, at Transfer Station, 118 Rockland Street (Rt. 139). Usable
latex paint* also accepted.
Commercial generators, call ahead to 1-617-852-3086 to arrange disposal and
payment. Please bring a check.

Bring: Oil based paint**, stains**, automotive fluids**, solvents,
gasoline, herbicides, pesticides, photography and pool chemicals, acids,
bases, and toxins in secure, labeled containers.

*Usable leftover latex paint will be accepted. The Paint Exchange LLC also
accepts it at their Rockland site for a fee of $2/can, and remanufactures
it into new paint. To see if your paint qualifies, and for hours of
operation, go to ssrcoop.info/, click on “Latex Paint”, or call
339-214-8462. If paint has been frozen, or has an odor, skin or chunks,
absorb liquid with cat litter and dispose in trash.

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,
rechargeable batteries, and fluorescent lamps are collected regularly by
many towns and retailers. Residents should use those services if
available. Go to ssrcoop.info, click on “Other Stuff”.

Stericycle Environmental will conduct the collection. For more
information, call the South Shore Recycling Cooperative at 781-329-8318, or
