The City of Santa Clarita encourages residents to dispose of their unwanted household hazardous and electronic waste at the FREE Household Hazardous/E-Waste Collection Event on Saturday, April 5, 2025, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. This event will take place at College of the Canyons South Parking Lot at 26455 Rockwell Canyon Road.
The Household Hazardous/E-Waste Collection Event is a safe and free opportunity for residents to dispose of their hazardous household and electronic waste (e-waste), including antifreeze, paint, paint thinner, turpentine, motor oil, oil filters, brake fluid, cleaners with acid or lye, pool chemicals, fertilizers, pesticides, household batteries or car batteries, fluorescent light bulbs, unwanted or expired prescription medications, televisions, computers and other miscellaneous electronics such as cell phones, printers and stereos. Needles or sharps disposal will require exiting your vehicle in a designated location to deposit them in a bin.
In preparation for the event, waste items should be packed in a sturdy box, preferably in their original labeled container, in the trunk of the participant’s vehicle. Participants should be prepared to leave any containers or boxes at the collection site and must remain in their vehicle while trained staff removes the hazardous waste from the vehicle’s trunk.
Items not eligible for disposal include:
• Ammunition, radioactive materials and explosives
• Controlled substances and biohazardous waste
• “White goods” including refrigerators, water heaters and other similar domestic appliances
• Waste from businesses
All Los Angeles County residents are welcome to attend the Household Hazardous Waste/E-Waste Collection event. Reservations are not needed to participate. A transportation limit of 125 pounds or 15 gallons per vehicle is enforced. Reminder: attendees must remain in their vehicles and event staff will only remove waste from a vehicle’s trunk or pick-up bed.
