Newton Sanitary Landfill Wraps Up Household Hazardous Waste Drop-Off Season

The Newton Sanitary Landfill will end its regular household hazardous waste collection season on Thursday, October 31. After this date, landfill staff will still accept sharps and fluorescent bulbs, but other hazardous waste collection services will not resume until April.

Residents can drop off accepted items, including aerosols, auto liquids like gasoline and oil filters, CFLs and fluorescent bulbs, household cleaning chemicals, oil-based paints, and pesticides, until the end of October. This service helps ensure hazardous materials are properly disposed of to protect both the community and the environment.
