The Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) mobile household hazardous waste collection service will be at the Cumberland County Community Complex on Saturday, October 1 from 8am to 1pm. Everyone is encouraged to bring household hazardous waste – including cleaning fluids, pesticides, rechargeable batteries and more. Disposal of household hazardous waste is free and you do not have to live in the county to participate. For more information call Conrad Welch at (931) 484-9328.
While household hazardous waste may be disposed for free, there is a cost for disposal of Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator Waste (i.e. wastes from non-household sources such as businesses, schools, farms, churches, etc.) An appointment is also necessary for non-household hazardous waste. Call (615) 643-3170 to request a price quote and schedule an appointment.
