Hazardous Waste
Hazardous Household Waste Day
Sunday, June 4, 2023 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Safely dispose of hazardous household waste and other items on specific dates at the Recycling and Disposal Facility. Hazardous Waste Collection Day is an important component in Wellesley's environmentally responsible approach to integrated solid waste management.

If you ONLY need to dispose of PAINT, do not bring it to this event. You may dispose of paint during the RDF paint collections. CLICK HERE for the 2023 RDF PAINT collection schedule.
