Household Hazardous Waste Day

On Saturday, April 19, 2008, the Jackson County Health Department sponsored and paid for another Household Hazardous Waste Day at the Southern Illinois Airport between Carbondale & Murphysboro. The event offered individuals the opportunity to properly dispose of a wide variety of household hazardous waste free of charge. As you can see form the photos below, the event was highly successful and helped to properly dispose of a tremendous amount of household hazardous waste.

 

Would you like to see a free household hazardous waste collection day for your community/county, please visit the Illinois EPA web site

http://www.epa.state.il.us/land/hazardous-waste/household-haz-waste/index.html where you can submit an application to request that Illinois EPA co-sponsor an event in your area

 

Thank you Jackson County Health Department for another tremendously successful event!
