For folks in and around Lowell, save a trip to Eugene and drop off your household hazardous waste materials closer to home!

Many common household products contain hazardous ingredients. Anything with a caution label such as Danger, Warning or Caustic can become a pollutant to groundwater and streams. Avoiding these products saves money and protects people, wildlife and our environment.

Alternatively, if you are coming to Eugene soon, you can easily schedule a Thursday or Saturday dropoff appointment at Glenwood Transfer Station (3100 E. 17th Ave., Eugene) at any time of the year at lanecountyor.gov/hazwaste.
