Household Hazardous Waste & Electronics Drop-off Center Open Saturdays Beginning May 16

The City of Alexandria will reopen its Household Hazardous Waste & Electronics Drop-off Center on Saturdays only, from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., beginning May 16. The City closed the center last month to minimize risk to employees and the public in light of COVID-19, but will reopen on a limited basis to accommodate residents who cannot store materials at home indefinitely, such as those who are moving. Before visiting the center, please consider whether the materials can be stored at home until a later date, when normal operations resume.

Residents are also reminded to bring materials to the site only when it is open. Do not leave materials outside the gate—unattended materials can lead to dangerous spills and potential chemical reactions. Dumping materials outside the gate is illegal and carries a maximum penalty of one year in jail or a $2,500 fine. 

Please note the following guidelines during this limited operational period:
