About Household Hazardous Waste Day
The Louisa County General Services Department holds at least two Household Hazardous Waste Day events every calendar year. One takes place in the Spring and one in the Fall. The events are designed to allow residents the chance to dispose of common hazardous household wastes free of charge. These wastes cannot be placed in the landfill and there is no local vendor they can be taken to for recycling. Household Hazardous Waste Day events are one way the County of Louisa aims to protect the environment for the future. Other ways are the recycling programs the County offers at its refuse sites including comingle, cardboard, and used oil recycling. For more information on recycling visit https://www.louisacounty.com/219/Solid-Waste-Recycling or call the Louisa County Sanitary Landfill at (540) 894-5390.
