Living Sustainably

Issue 4 - Mar 2007
Cleanout your household chemical clutter and it is free

If your home or shed contains unwanted, unused or excess paint, paint related products, pesticides, herbicides, solvents, household cleaners, motor oils, fuels, batteries, gas bottles, fire extinguishers, pool or hobby chemicals then it is time to clean them out.

Many common household chemicals can be harmful to human and environmental health if they are left in homes for a long period of time or are disposed of incorrectly.

That's why Councils in conjunction with the Department of Environment and Conservation NSW runs CleanOut - a FREE service to encourage the responsible return, reuse and recycling of household chemicals.

Only household quantities up to 20kg or 20 litres are accepted.
