Numerous household materials can be brought to the environmental clean-up days to be recycled. There will be bins for traditional materials, such as, paper, cardboard, containers (plastics, glass and tin), scrap metal, and freon appliances (air conditioners and refrigerators). There will also be an opportunity for residents to dispose of household hazardous wastes (cleaning supplies, motor oil, mercury, oil based paints, etc), furniture, old tires, and electronic equipment, like computers, televisions, toasters, etc.
Residents can bring up to 4 tires for free. A $5 donation will be requested for each additional tire. Residents can bring 1 of the following items for free: television, freon-containing appliance, or computer. A $10 donation will be requested for each additional item.
This is a service for Washtenaw County residents only, funded and coordinated by the Washenaw County Solid Waste Program on behalf of local units of government. All residents are welcome and encouraged to attend. Businesses and non-county residents are restricted from attending. No household garbage will be accepted!
