Event Details:

The City of Stratford will be holding a Household Hazardous Waste collection Saturday, May 14 for residents to drop off materials labelled as corrosive, explosive, flammable or poisonous.

The collection will take place in the northwest parking lot of the Rotary Complex, 353 McCarthy Road West, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Trained professionals will be on hand to safely receive things like:

Paints (please do not bring empty containers), varnish, solvents, caulking, glue

Fuels, antifreeze, brake fluid
Used motor oil and filters
Batteries (household, rechargeable, automotive)
Household cleaners (i.e. bleach, oven cleaners)
Energy efficient bulbs, fluorescent tubes/bulbs
Needles in a puncture-proof container
Refillable and non-refillable propane tanks

Measures will be in place Saturday to manage the flow of traffic expected for the Household Hazardous Waste collection, as well as the Stratford Farmer’s Market at the Agriplex.

Vehicles waiting to drop off hazardous waste materials will be directed to the outside perimeter of the parking lot, around the Canadian Dairy XPO “Cow Coliseum” and behind the Rotary Complex before dropping off their materials in the northwest corner of the property.

Marketgoers will travel from the entrance straight down the laneway to the market area, and leave along that same route.

We urge all motorists to drive cautiously Saturday and be aware of pedestrians.

Please note that hazardous waste will not be accepted at the Romeo Street landfill site.

Also, empty metal paint cans should not be brought to the hazardous waste depot. They can be dropped off in the metal recycling bin at the landfill site, as long as they are empty, the paint is dry, and the lid removed.
