	Household Hazardous Waste Collection Program January 2008 - June 2008 What is Household Hazardous Waste? All The Items Listed Below And More!
Household Hazardous Waste Collection Sites will take ALL Household Hazardous Waste

Before transporting waste to the collection event or facility, please use this checklist to make sure you have done the following:
	Have I used up every product to the fullest extent possible?	Is the waste in its original container or is it properly labeled as to the contents? (The contents of the container must be the same as stated on the label. If not, cover up the label and write the name of its content.)
	Have I offered good, usable products I can’t use to my neighbor, family or friends?	Are the items placed in a sturdy container, such as cardboard or wooden box, for transporting? (Wrap glass bottles in newspaper to prevent breakage.) Containers with flammable liquid will not be returned.
	Does the amount of waste I want to transport exceed 5 gallons or 50 pounds of chemical waste? (State Law maximum transportation limitation.)	Is the box placed in the trunk of your car or in the bed of your pickup truck and secured to prevent movement? (Keep items away from passengers.)
	Are any of the containers leaking? (If they are, place them in a container or material that will not allow the leak to spread and place securely in the vehicle for safe transport.)
Follow directions once you reach the event site. You will be asked to turn off your motor and stay in your vehicle. The site staff will unload the material from your vehicle.

THIS EVENT IS FOR RESIDENTIAL USE ONLY. PHOTO DOCUMENTATION WILL BE MADE OF EXCESSIVE OR SUSPECTED NON-RESIDENTIAL LOADS COMING TO EVENT.

Proper Disposal of Medication and Sharps Most medications are not considered hazardous waste and can be disposed of in regular trash. Remove personal information from containers.
Liquid...............	Empty liquid medication onto absorbent paper towels or rags and throw in trash.
Pill....................	Crush pills, mix with coffee grounds or kitty litter, and dispose of mixture in trash.
Inhaler.............	Empty container, expel propellant, and toss empty cylinder in trash.
Sharps/ Needles...........	Must be placed in a secure approved sharps container and brought to a Household Hazardous Waste collection for disposal. FREE Approved containers are available while supply lasts. If a container is not available, put sharps in rigid plastic jug (bleach bottle), tighten lid, secure with tape, and place label “SHARPS/NEEDLES”. ALWAYS BRING SHARPS TO HHW PERMANENT FACILITY OR TEMPORARY EVENT.

Small Business Waste

Conditional Exempt Small Quantity Generator ( CESQG) 1 800-952-5566
What is a CESQG? Businesses that generate up to 27 gallons or 220 lbs. of hazardous waste, or 2.2 lbs of extremely hazardous waste per month are called CESQG’s. These businesses are required to use a licensed hazardous waste hauler to manifest and transport their waste. The most common CESQG’s are painters, print shops, auto shops, builders, churches, schools, non-profit groups and property managers.

What is the CESQG Program? This Program is a hazardous waste pick-up disposal service for eligible businesses/nonprofit organizations in the County of Riverside. This Program provides small quantity generators with a legal and affordable way to dispose of their waste with all legal documentation provided as part of the service.

How do I get service? To arrange an appointment for the CESQG Program, call 1 (800) 952-5566. A disposal fee will be charged based on the type and amount of waste.

Business waste will NOT be accepted at HHW events or facilities.
