  • In Closing About Hazardous Waste Disposal in Boston:

    Disposing of hazardous waste in Boston, Massachusetts, requires following specific guidelines and using designated facilities and programs to ensure safe and compliant disposal. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to properly dispose of hazardous waste in Boston:

    1. Identify Hazardous Waste

    Hazardous waste includes items like:

  • Batteries

  • Paints and solvents

  • Pesticides and herbicides

  • Household cleaners

  • Motor oil and antifreeze

  • Electronics (e-waste)

  • Fluorescent bulbs and tubes

  • Medications

  • 2. (For Residents) Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection Events

    The City of Boston holds HHW collection events several times a year where residents can drop off their hazardous waste for proper disposal. Check the city’s website or contact the Boston Public Works Department for dates and locations of upcoming events.

    3. (For Residents) Permanent Drop-off Locations

    Some hazardous waste items can be taken to permanent drop-off locations. For example:

  • E-waste: Some retail stores like Best Buy or Staples accept electronics for recycling.

  • Medications: Drop-off kiosks at Boston Police Department stations or participating pharmacies.

  • Batteries and fluorescent bulbs: Some hardware stores and retail locations may accept these items.

  • 4. Specific Disposal Instructions

    For certain hazardous waste items, follow these specific instructions:

  • Paints and Solvents: If latex paint is fully dried out, it can be disposed of with regular trash. Residents with Oil-based paints and solvents should take them to HHW events.

  • Motor Oil and Antifreeze: For residents with Oil and Antifreeze, many auto service stations and auto parts stores accept used motor oil and antifreeze.

  • Household Cleaners: If possible, use up these products entirely. Otherwise, if you are a resident with these and have no use for them, bring them to an HHW event.

  • 5. Residents Should Check with Local Authorities

    Always verify the disposal procedures by contacting the Boston Public Works Department or visiting their official website. They provide updated information on hazardous waste disposal, including any changes due to COVID-19 or other factors.

    6. Recycling Programs

    Utilize local recycling programs for items like electronics, batteries, and bulbs. The Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) website offers resources and information on recycling programs throughout the state for residents. ADCO can assist businesses and industrial facilities with these to dispose of.

    7. Commercial Hazardous Waste

    If you are a business or organization, you must comply with federal and state regulations for hazardous waste disposal. Contact a licensed hazardous waste hauler such as ADCO for guidance on proper disposal methods.

    By following these guidelines, you can ensure that hazardous waste is disposed of safely and responsibly in Boston, protecting both the environment and public health.
