Have you ever asked yourself if any of your household waste is hazardous?
Most households generate a ton of garbage which mostly consists of plastics bottles, cardboard, tin cans various glass material. However, did you ever think of the other garbage you dispose off? Hazardous waste can harm people, animals and plants and must be disposed off in a proper manner.
We should never assume that hazardous waste is found only in commercial and industrial sites because that is not true. Our homes, job sites and offices are littered with hazardous waste such as:
- Batteries
- Electronics

- Paint
- Paint thinners
- Air Freshners..(Yes…Hazardous)
