Your community likely has dozens of locations that accept all sorts of hazardous and toxic materials but they're not always heavily advertised. Earth911 catalogs the locations of recycling and hazardous material disposal sites so finding where you can get rid of left over pain medication, dead batteries, burned out fluorescent tubes, motor oil, and more, is a simple search away. The listings at Earth911 include drop off locations, curbside programs, and mail-in programs.
