Free Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection Events This Fall for Residents

Submitted by Riverside County Department of Waste Resources

Riverside County’s Department of Waste Resources hosts permanent and temporary collection events for household hazardous waste (HHW) that should not be discarded of in residential trash, recycling, or organic bins.

Residents are encouraged to bring their HHW to any of these FREE events and review the complete 2026 HHW collection schedule online at https://rcwaste.org/household-hazardous-waste
