Hazardous waste events will no longer accept latex paint. Latex paint is not hazardous waste. Latex paint must be discarded with regular trash after it it dried out or solidified. 

The City's hazardous waste drop off days are the third Saturday of April and October each year from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm.  The drop off site is the DPW yard at 1200 Parkway Drive (corner of Marter). View the Hazardous Waste Guidelines for proper disposal.

GFL Environment Services/Public Works WILL NOT COLLECT CURBSIDE any hazardous substances, including oil-based paints, thinners, weed killers, fertilizers, pesticides, gasoline, etc. These substances should be used completely and empty containers disposed of in the trash.
