Household Hazardous Waste

The City of Lawrence/Douglas County Household Hazardous Waste Facility accepts hazardous waste from Douglas County households for free throughout the year. The Household Hazardous Waste Facility operates on a by-appointment-only basis for Douglas County residents. Materials accepted at the HHW Facility include unwanted paint (empty/dry paint cans can be disposed of in the trash), pesticides, cleaners, mercury thermometers and light bulbs (non-mercury and LED bulbs can be disposed of in the trash), and household batteries. The facility also houses a Product Reuse Store, which allows Douglas County residents to pick up recycled products in good, usable condition by appointment.
