HOW CAN I CREATE LESS HAZARDOUS WASTE?
(Below are some tips to create less hazardous waste)
  1. One of the best ways to create less hazardous waste is to use safer alternatives.

  2. Buy the smallest amount you need for a specific job.

  3. Buy the product with the lowest level of warning on the label. Buy "caution" instead of "poison".

  4. Use up the hazardous products you have first before purchasing more. If you can’t use it up give it to someone who will.

  5. If you must dispose of hazardous waste take it to the Household Hazardous Waste Facility on Johnson Canyon Rd. or Sun St. in Salinas.
