While household waste disposal facilities are open, Hazardous Waste Management Program officials encourage postponing non-essential trips to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
With more people using cleaning products during the COVID-19 pandemic, there’s been an increase in accidental poisonings in Washington State. There has also been some misinformation circulating, so we want to make it clear: When using a cleaner or disinfectant, always follow the product’s directions and never apply these products to yourself or others.
The Haz Waste Program’s Residential Services Team hasn’t let the spread of COVID-19 halt their work with community partners. With a little creativity and flexibility, the team has adopted new ways to deliver educational health services to immigrant and refugee families.
The North Seattle and South Seattle household hazardous waste collection facilities are temporarily closed due to precautions for COVID-19. Our home collection service is also suspended until further notice. The Factoria facility in Bellevue, the year-round Wastemobile in Auburn, and Wastemobile events throughout King County are open. However, we encourage you to postpone your trip unless necessary.
