Do not dispose of pesticides in your general waste bin or down sinks, drains or sewers

Reduce what you use:

  • Only purchase the amount you need to avoid excess wastage
  • Use non-toxic equivalents
  • Handle and store the pesticides appropriately to maximise their useful life
  • Prevent unnecessary wastage and spillages by making sure caps and lids are replaced securely

We do not accept any chemicals at our Recycling and Household Waste Sites, they must be taken to Labwaste in Hinckley. You will need a chemical waste permit.
