What do I do with household hazardous waste (HHW) and electronic waste (e-waste)?
These items cannot be put into your curbside bin, so here are some easy ways to deal with HHW and e-waste:
- Bulky Item Collection: Residents may schedule up to two (2) free pick-ups per year, where up to five (5) E-Waste items may be placed curbside.
- Monthly HHW Drop-Off Events at John Smith Road Landfill: HHW can be dropped off every third Saturday of the month from 9 AM – 12 PM. This event is FREE for San Benito County residents (proof is required). Maximum of 15 gallons or 125 pounds per load.
- Quarterly Bulky Item Events: Residents may drop off two (2) Bulky Items, per event, for FREE during quarterly events.
- Environmental Days: Three (3) times per year, residents are invited to shred important documents, drop off e-waste, and pick up free compost during our Environmental Day Events.
