Registration User Instructions
Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) is waste produced in our households that is hazardous in nature, but not regulated as hazardous waste under federal and state laws. HHW is that portion of a household product that is no longer usable, is left-over or unwanted, and must be disposed of. The labels on hazardous products typically use words like CAUTION, DANGER, WARNING, COMBUSTIBLE, CORROSIVE, EXPLOSIVE, TOXIC, POISON, or FLAMMABLE.
• Be sure to read product labels for disposal directions to reduce the risk of products exploding, igniting, leaking, mixing with other chemicals, or posing other hazards.
There is no dedicated drop off facility in Northampton County that accepts household hazardous waste. HHW Collection Events provide County residents with access to proper HHW disposal. If you reside within the County, you can take HHW products to an annual collection event free of charge. Acceptable waste must be generated in a home, and not affiliated with any commercial business, contractor, nonprofit, organization, institution, or out-of-county residence. Staff have the right to deny and refuse unauthorized material. Proof of residency is required.
• If you cannot attend a county collection event, please consider asking a friend or neighbor to take the items to the event for proper disposal.
As a Last Resort
If you are unable to wait for a county program offering, you can consider contacting a hazardous waste company to inquire about disposal of HHW materials from your home (fees will apply), or you may legally dispose of them in your household trash provided that:
□ You have looked at the label for any disposal instructions and complied with them.
□ Liquids have been allowed to evaporate or have been absorbed by a material such as vermiculite, cat litter, sawdust, etc.
□ The material has been carefully packaged (i.e., double bagged) to prevent leakage.
□ Large quantities are intermingled with your other household trash in small batches over several collection days.
Our dog wardens work hard every day to serve as the eyes and ears for the dogs of Pennsylvania.
