Today we continue with our Household Hazardous Waste series highlighting something everyone has sitting around the house...cleaning solutions!

Did you know there are many household cleaners and polishes that are considered hazardous if not properly stored or disposed? Always check the labels and never dump leftover solution down the drain or in the trash to avoid polluting the environment, contaminating septic tanks and water treatment systems, or even sparking a fire if the product is flammable.🔥

Instead, visit https://twinoakslandfill.com/hhw.asp, a local resource for hazardous waste disposal, for a full list of accepted materials to drop-off. As always, residents of Brenham, Texas can also use the BVR Waste and Recycling app through the Apple App Store or Google Play to search for proper disposal of common items.
