Household Hazardous Waste

Many common household items can pose risks to your family, pets, and the environment if not disposed of correctly. They should never be discarded in the trash, poured down drains or storm sewers, or left at the curb or in alleys. Thankfully, Denver provides options for the safe disposal and recycling of hazardous products through its Paint Recycling, Battery Disposal, and Household Hazardous Waste Collection Program. These services are available to Denver residents either for free or at a minimal cost.
