Description

The S.T.O.P. (Stop Throwing Out Pollutants) program offers residents of North Hempstead the opportunity to dispose of their household hazardous waste in an environmentally friendly manner. Many people do not realize that ordinary household products, such as aerosols and cleaners, can be corrosive, explosive, or toxic if mixed indiscriminately with regular household garbage. Please take an extra moment to check labels for warnings, and please take advantage of the S.T.O.P. dates to ensure safe disposal.
 
Explosives, fireworks, ammunition, radioactive materials, and commercial or industrial wastes are not accepted. 
 
For more information, please call 311 if within the Town or (516) 869-6311 if outside the Town.
