Household Hazardous Waste

Household Hazardous Waste

The next Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) collection has not yet been scheduled. Details of the event will be published in the coming weeks.

Accepted items:

  • All types of Hazardous waste
  • Polystyrene (plastic No. 6)
  • Electronic equipment*

* EPRA-Québec’s Recycle My Electronics program will take charge of all electronics brought to the collection event.

Kirkland residents can also drop-off specific types of HHW at the Municipal Yard during opening hours and according to its operating schedule.  Accepted items include electronic equipment, fluorescent lightbulbs and neon lights.

How to dispose of HHW products safely

  • HHW products must not be disposed of in the trash, the recycling or with the compost. In addition to being harmful for the environment, certain HHW products can be very dangerous. Chlorine, for example, can cause a fire if it comes into contact with liquids. Even in a tightly closed container, it can be a fire hazard as the container may break in the truck from compacting.
  • HHW must not be poured in the sewers because it can adversely affect water treatment and may also find its way into the environment.
  • Avoid mixing chemicals because some may have a reaction and produce toxic gases.
  • It is important to store dangerous products in a well-ventilated area, out of the reach of children, and to get rid of leftovers as soon as possible.
  • When dropping off your HHW, products must be kept in their original containers, otherwise they must be properly identified.
