Hazardous waste collection Friday

Lexington government is sponsoring a hazardous waste collection event on Saturday, May 22.  The Mentelle Neighborhood Association will help coordinate a neighborhood pick-up and delivery of  hazardous waste products from your homes and garages. This service will allow you to free-up your Saturday so you don’t have to wait in line to drop off your waste!

On Friday, May 21, you may drop off one box load of any of the hazardous waste products on this list at the Ashland Elementary School parking lot between 6:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.  We will take this load to the drop off center on Saturday. Please note:

  • This service is limited to members of the Mentelle Neighborhood Association.  If you are not a member but live in the neighborhood, we request that you join our Association or pay $15 cash when you make the drop off.
  • Please limit your load to one medium-size box.  Many families will want to participate, so please be reasonable.
  • You must limit your items to things on the list.  Do not ask for exceptions.  Please be sure items are well sealed so they will not spill.
  • This is a first-come, first-serve service.  Once the pickup truck is filled, we will cease taking items.
