12/20/2011
Peoria residents can dispose of household hazardous
waste for free on Saturday, Jan. 7 from 8 a.m. to noon, at the Municipal
Operations Center, 8850 N. 79th Avenue. Many household items - such as paint,
batteries, motor oil, and antifreeze - require special disposal as hazardous
waste. Dumping these wastes down the drain or in the trash hurts the environment
and can potentially harm people who come in contact them. For a complete list of
acceptable items, visit
www.peoriaaz.gov/hazmat or call 623-773-7160.
