Register for the Household Hazardous Waste Collection Event on Dec. 3

This time of year can include lots of cooking, cleaning and decorating! If you have leftover cooking oil, grease, cleaning supplies, batteries or other crud, bring it to our FREE household hazardous waste collection event 9-11 a.m. this Saturday, Dec. 3, at the Development Center, 206 W. Church St.

Registration is required. Visit www.gptx.org/WQ/HHW or call 972-237-8055 to register and learn more about what kind of items are accepted.

Remember that oil and grease can clog drains when poured down the kitchen sink. So if you are planning on doing a lot of cooking this season, pick up a FREE funnel (while supplies last) to help pour used grease and cooking oil into a non-leaking container (such as an empty coffee container or detergent bottle with a lid) to bring to the next HHW collection event.
