Seniors can call for pickup of household hazardous waste
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 include batteries, cleaning supplies, lighter fluid, antifreeze, aerosol cans (no empties), 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 may be made by calling Yolo County’s household hazardous waste line at (866) 714-8470.
The pickup program is provided by the Yolo County Planning & Public Works Department Division of Integrated Waste Management, which manages the Yolo County Central Landfill, the Esparto Convenience Center and various recycling programs at the landfill seven days a week.
Items accepted include electronic waste, cardboard, plastics #1 through #7, agricultural and rigid plastics, used motor oil and filters, and mixed paper and glass.
