Handling Household Hazardous Waste Safely
Do not mix different types of hazardous wastes in a bottle or container. Doing so can be extremely dangerous. Keep materials in their original containers.
It is advisable to use rubber gloves, safety glasses, and to be sure that arms and legs are covered.
Make sure the containers used for transporting the hazardous waste are secure and leak-free. When driving with hazardous waste in your vehicle be sure your load is secure and cannot spill.
If you have special directions or information on how a certain product should be handled, let the Eco Station staff know.
