Sacramento County reminds residents to properly dispose of batteries and unused household chemicals. These items should not be placed in curbside carts. Instead, they can be taken to a local Household Hazardous Waste Drop-off Facility for free disposal.
Residents are advised to keep chemicals in their original containers when possible. If a container is leaking, place it in a larger plastic container with a tightly sealed lid. During transport, secure containers in a box in the trunk or truck bed, ensure good ventilation, and avoid smoking. More information is available at RecycleReboot.com…
