Household Hazardous Waste
Household chemicals such as used oil, cleaners, paints, stains, paint
thinners and strippers, fuels, insecticides, herbicides, fertilizers and
the like, all require
 special
attention when it comes to ensuring their responsible disposal.
In order to ensure that these materials are disposed
properly, the Hillsborough County Solid Waste Management Department
sponsors a monthly Household Chemical Collection Center (HCCC).
Currently the HCCC is alternated between an Apollo Beach site and a
location in the Town and Country area.
 The Environmental Protection Commission actively supports
the Solid Waste Management Department’s efforts in providing an outlet
for the
responsible management of household chemicals and encourages all County
residents to take advantage the program.
For more information related to the scheduling and
locations of the HCCC, please contact the
Hillsborough
County Solid Waste Management Department at (813) 744-5680.
