Township Waste Day coming next Saturday
Bloomfield Township residents will be able to dispose of hazardous waste on Saturday, October 3 when the popular Household Hazardous Waste Drop Off Day event returns to the township campus from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Household hazardous waste crews will be on hand to take items such as drain cleaners, weed killer, gasoline, motor oil, starter fluid, transmission fluid, paint, fluorescent light bulbs/PBC ballasts, household batteries and automotive batteries, propane, fire extinguishers, old tires, and much more.
No electronic waste, medication, or paper shredding will be accepted at this event.
There will be signs on Telegraph and Long Lake directing traffic. The event is open to Township residents only, and proof of residency is required.
Even with upwards of 1,000 participants expected, don’t expect to waste time. “The lines move pretty quickly, you really shouldn’t be here for more than 20 minutes,” says public works manager Adam Roose.
