What is household hazardous waste?
Household hazardous waste (HHW) is any waste from your home that you consider to be dangerous or of which you are unsure. It includes leftover household products that are marked flammable, corrosive or poisonous, or those that are compressed gas (such as aerosols, butane and lighters).
