Household Hazardous Waste (HHW)
We opened a seasonal HHW Depot at the Alva Waste Transfer Station in Springfield (1050 Charlestown Road) to offer a more convenient way for local residents to dispose of bathroom cleaners, nail polish remover, paint, insecticides, chemical fertilizers, etc. This service is available on Tuesdays and Thursdays only, from 9am to 12pm, from May through September. All appointments must be made 24+ hours in advance.
Please Note:
- This drop-off is for Southern Windsor/Windham Counties and Great Upper Valley solid waste district residents only.
- $10/car for up to 10 gallons of HHW (no charge for paint)
- Small businesses must pay for disposal costs and pre-register. Click here for registration form.
- Click here for a list of what we accept and don't accept.
If you need to properly dispose of HHW when our Depot is closed (e.g., October through April) "The Rutland County Solid Waste District has a permanent hazardous waste collection facility that is generally open year-round. Visit their website or call 802-775-7209 for more information."
If you just have paint to recycle, and the cans are labeled and not leaking, you can bring them to your local participating retailer (we'll take the rest at our HHW Depot):
Bibens and Sherwin-Williams in Springfield
Aubuchon Hardware in Ludlow and Windsor
