Keeping office hazardous wastes out of the trash reduces the amount of toxins going into our water supply and into the landfill. Most departments on campus produce some sort of hazardous waste. Please dispose of these properly to prevent ground and water contamination.

Office hazardous wastes include batteries, aerosol spray containers, enamel or oil-based paints, rubber cement and thinner, white out and thinner, and many others.

All hazardous wastes must be handled by Risk Management and Safety. Please contact them at 621-5861 for further information.
