Dear Friends and Neighbors,
Westchester County’s Department of Environmental Facilities will be conducting a Household Recycling Day (HRD) on Saturday, September 28 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at FDR State Park, Rte. 202, Yorktown and on Saturday, November 9 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Rye Playland, Playland Parkway, Rye.
In addition to properly labelled household chemicals and other special wastes found in a typical household, residents can bring documents for shredding and expired or unwanted medications for disposal.
Generally, the following items are accepted for safe disposal or recycling:
Items that will not be accepted and should not be brought to the Household Recycling Day include paint (both latex and oil), non-rechargeable alkaline and carbon zinc batteries (they can be safely discarded in the trash), motor oil, smoke detectors, cell phones, explosives (flares, fireworks, ammunition), construction debris and hypodermic needles. Also, waste from businesses, schools or other institutions will not be accepted.
For more information on what to bring to this event, visit www.westchestergov.com/
If you can’t make it to the HRD Events, you can still dispose of your hard-to-get-rid-of household waste by visiting the County’s Household-Material Recycling Facility (H-MRF), 15 Woods Rd., Valhalla. The H-MRF is open on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. by appointment, and accepts the same items that are accepted at the HRD events. For more information about the H-MRF or to make an appointment, visit http://environment.
Sincerely,
