Household Chemical Collection Program

In May 1997, James City County began sponsoring household chemical collections as part of a regional program coordinated by Virginia Peninsula Public Service Authority. This program enables residents to safely dispose of household chemicals. In general, the types of chemicals included in this program are:

• Household Maintenance Products (oils, paints, latex paints, stains, wood sealers, thinners, solvents, adhesives, glues)
• Automotive Products (gasoline and other fuels, auto batteries, car waxes, oil and gasoline mixtures, transmission fluid, brake fluid, fuel additives)
• Lawn & Garden Products (Insecticides, weed killers, other pesticides, fertilizers, swimming pool chemicals)
• Household Cleaning Products (oven cleaners, drain cleaners, metal polishes, floor waxes)
• Miscellaneous Products (photo finishing supplies, chemistry sets, charcoal fluid, household batteries, fluorescent light bulbs including compact fluorescent light bulbs - CFLs )

2010 Household Chemical Collections

All collections are open to the residents of Williamsburg, James City County, York County, Hampton and Poquoson.  Proof of residency may be required.
