Household Hazard
Waste Day: September 29, 2012
The town of North Brookfield will
be hosting a paint and hazardous waste collection day at the Brookfields Regional
Paint Collection Facility on East Brookfield Road, North Brookfield. The
entrance is next to Chase Precast, and the exit is the same as the North
Brookfield Transfer/Recycling Facility.
This is free to all residents of the Brookfields and Spencer. Residents of the
Towns of New Braintree and Oakham are welcome to participate in this
collection, but they must pay for disposal costs. For 5 gallons or less of
ordinary household hazardous waste, the charge is $20. From 5 - 10 gallons, the
charge is $40. For hazardous waste costing more than $4 per gallon for disposal,
the chemist running the collection will decide the cost to be paid by the
resident.
The following is a list of all types of hazardous wastes we will be collecting:
drain cleaners, metal polish, photo chemicals, dry cleaning fluids, rust
preventatives, wood strippers, paint thinner, sealants, gasoline, engine and
radiator flushes, old chemistry sets, herbicides, brake fluid, pool chemicals,

supplies, floor cleaners, radiator cleaners, wood preservatives, oil based
paints, solvent degreasers, antifreeze, transmission fluid, pesticides, insect
