Your household hazardous waste can be safely disposed of by following some simple steps. Batteries should be put in a garbage bag, tied shut and then placed in the regular trash. Old electronics should first have their sensitive information erased and then they should be crushed with a compressor or broken apart with a hammer to reduce their volume before placing them in the trash. Furthermore, all hazardous material labels (such as flammable, toxic or biohazard) should also be looked for and properly handled according to the instructions on the label. By following these steps you can safely get rid of your household hazardous waste without having to worry about proper handling procedures.

You should never try to dispose of hazardous waste items without following proper handling procedures. Improperly disposing of these items can have dangerous and negative impacts on the environment. To properly discard these items, you should research how to safely do so, as different countries and states have different regulations for disposing of hazardous materials. Additionally, you could call your local refuse/handling service and ask them what disposal methods they accept or suggest.
