Where can I safely dispose of unused or unwanted chemicals, paints, or other household hazardous wastes?
There are many household products used around your home. Many products can be extremely poisonous for small children and pets. You can safely dispose of your household hazardous wastes at Washtenaw Countys permanent drop-off site. The Washtenaw County Home Toxics Reduction Center is located at the Western County Service Center, at 705 N. Zeeb Road (just north of exit 169 on I-94). The Center is a white shed surrounded by a green chain link fence, on the south side of the parking lot behind the Service Center building. The Center is open every Saturday from 9am-Noon (excluding holidays) from the first weekend in April to the first weekend in December. Between the first weekend of December to the first weekend of April, it is open by appointment only (call 222-6865 to schedule).
