    Properly Dispose of Household Hazardous Waste on June 27

    Loudoun County's Office of Solid Waste Management will host a Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) collection event from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, June 27, 2009 at Stone Bridge High School, 43100 Hay Road, Ashburn.

    HHW includes items such as fluorescent bulbs, oil-based paints/stains/varnishes, paint thinners, metal polishes, rust removers, wood preservatives, furniture polish, waxes, bathroom, kitchen and oven cleaners, pool chemicals, old fuels including gas/oil mixes, kerosene and diesel fuel, and many others. Latex or water-based paints are not hazardous waste and can be dried or solidified and disposed of in your household garbage.

    Used motor oil, antifreeze, automobile batteries, lead-acid batteries and propane tanks will not be accepted at any HHW collection events. They can be recycled year round at the Loudoun County Solid Waste Management Facility located on Evergreen Mills Road in Leesburg.

    For more tips on proper paint disposal, identification of HHW or the 2009 HHW event schedule, visit our web site at www.loudoun.gov/hhw or call the Office of Solid Waste Management at 703-777-0187.
