For the past 25 years Westmoreland Cleanways only had the resources available to host 2-3 household hazardous collection (HHW) events each year. Residents would need to stockpile dangerous HHW in their homes, and keep their fingers crossed they’d be available on event day. Well no longer is that a worry!
Westmoreland Cleanways and Recycling is proud to announce that starting April 2022, we will be hosting HHW events. Noble Environmental will be on site the 1st and the 3rd WEDNESDAY of each month, 8am-1pm (regular operating hours) collecting household hazardous waste at a cost of $.80/lb.(credit/debit cards only).
