Hazardous waste pickup offered for seniors and disabled
Senior or disabled residents who cannot drive, and who have household hazardous waste in need of proper disposal, may schedule a free pickup of their waste. Yolo County residents 65 years and older qualify for this service.
Material that can be collected includes household batteries, cleaning supplies, lighter fluid, antifreeze, aerosol cans (empties can be recycled), garden pesticides and herbicides, latex or oil-based paints, solvents, poisons, fluorescent bulbs or tubes, used motor oil and used oil filters.
Appointments are required for the door-to-door program and can be made by contacting Yolo County’s household hazardous waste line at (866) 714-8470.
Recycling programs are offered at the landfill seven days a week, including electronic waste, cardboard, plastics No. 1-7, agricultural and rigid plastics, used motor oil and filters, and mixed paper and glass. For more information, visit www.yolocounty.org.
