Household Hazardous Collection Center
The NEDT Household Hazardous Products Collection Centers located in Sutton and Westfield, MA are permitted to accept household hazardous products (see “What We Accept”) from households of any municipality in Massachusetts and certain adjoining states.
Households now have a safe, and environmentally conscious, way to dispose of Household Hazardous Products that have been accumulating in cupboards, closets, and garages of their homes. Stop worrying about the health effects that these hazardous/toxic materials can have on your children and pets. Stop wondering about the environmental problems and cleanup costs that will occur if they are spilled.
The Collection Center operates on a “pay-as-you-throw” basis. Cash or credit cards are accepted for payment. See “Price Lists” page for details.
If you are unable to deliver your Household Hazardous Products to the Collection Centers, learn more about our home pick-up service.
NEDT is proud to offer our services to MA’s Board of Health members to help their communities better dispose of household hazardous waste. See our Board of Health Services page for more details.
