The DC Department of Public Works (DPW) will hold its monthly Household Hazardous Waste/E-Cycling/Personal Document Shredding drop-off on Saturday, June 2, between 8 am and 3 pm at the Ft. Totten Transfer Station. District residents may bring toxic items, such as pesticides, batteries and cleaning fluids to Ft. Totten, along with computers, televisions and other unwanted electronic equipment. Personal document shredding also is available and residents may bring up to five boxes of materials to be shredded. No business or commercial material will be accepted.
To accommodate residents whose religious beliefs prohibit them from using the Saturday drop-off, DPW will accept household hazardous waste and e-cyclables ONLY at Ft. Totten the Thursday before the first Saturday of the month (May 31, from 1 pm to 5 pm). While DPW normally offers personal document shredding the first Saturday, they cannot accept items for shredding on Thursdays because these documents cannot be protected until the shredding contractor arrives the first Saturday.
For a list of all household hazardous waste and e-cyclables accepted by DPW, please visit dpw.dc.gov
