Warrick County residents will be able to get rid of their household hazardous waste materials this May.

It's spring cleaning time! I would be willing to bet that it has been quite some time since you have gone through all of your drawers and cabinets in your house or garage and cleaned them out. Honestly, I couldn't tell you the last time I took the time to look through mine to toss out what I don't use. More importantly, to toss out things that are expired...which I am sure is a surprising amount. I plan on going through the house and my shed here soon to see what I can get rid of. Now, a lot of things that I might want to get rid of, aren't typically accepted at the dump. There is, however, an exception. You can drop off your household hazardous waste in Warrick County on a specific day in May.

I'm talking about household hazardous chemicals such as motor oils and filters, oil-based paint, batteries, aerosol cans, and medications, to name a few. So, if you have some of these items stored away that you need to get rid of, here's your chance.
