Please enter the park on Park Ave(front gate) and exit out the north drive on the highway.
This event provides a safe and responsible way to dispose of common household hazardous materials that should not be placed in regular trash or recycling bins.
Accepted items for the Hazardous Materials Mobile Collection Event include oil-based paints, aerosols, household cleaners, yard and bug sprays, glues and adhesives, light bulbs, batteries, and SHARPS (needles/syringes). Residents can also bring poisons, pool chemicals, car care products such as windshield fluid and car cleaners, as well as insecticides, herbicides, and pesticides for proper disposal.
However, certain materials will not be accepted at the event. These include latex paint, used motor oil and motor oil filters, antifreeze, and business or farm chemicals. Additionally, fireworks, ammunition, explosives, radioactive materials, asbestos, medications, joint compounds, cement mixes, trash, and regular recycling will not be collected and should be disposed of through other appropriate channels.
Residents are encouraged to take advantage of this local event to properly dispose of hazardous materials from their homes. Without this collection, these materials would need to be taken directly to the Hazardous Materials Collection Facility in Fort Dodge.
