The Household Hazardous Waste Home Collection Pilot Program Launched - Collection Center Hours Reduced
The City of Santa Monica launched the Household Hazardous Waste Home Collection Pilot Program, a pick-up service where the "Haz Mat" technician comes to you. The goal is to expand levels of service for residents while reducing costs. The service will be provided on a free and unlimited basis to homeowners and renters alike.
Beginning September 17, 2011, the Household Hazardous Waste Center will be available for drop-off service on SATURDAYS ONLY (9 AM - 2 PM). If the pilot is successful, the center will close January 1, 2012.
The new service is provided in a few easy steps:
- Reserve collection service: call 1 (800) 449-7587, Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM; or e-mail hotline@curbsideinc.com;
- Receive collection kit in the mail (includes detailed instructions with collection day reminder);
- Prepare collection kit at your doorstep or at a predetermined location on collection day;
- Leave prepared materials and we'll do the rest.
For additional information please visit sustainablesm.org/hhw or call (310) 458-2213. This service is provided by the Office of Sustainability and the Environment and WM Curbside Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Waste Management.
