Household Hazardous Waste Swap Shop Curbside Inc. 1-800-449-7587
In addition to its once-a-year, door-to-door hazardous-waste pickup service, Denver also has a drop-off facility, the Household Hazardous Waste Swap Shop, where you can take up to 125 pounds of oil-based or latex paint, moth balls, solvents, hobby supplies, fluorescent tubes, car batteries -- whatever eligible toxic materials you have lying around the garage -- for free recycling and/or disposal, by appointment only. And while you're there, go ahead and peruse other people's discarded paint pots and aerosol cans for any stuff you want. Ultimately, Denver's waste-management program wants residents to reduce the hazardous materials they use, but as long as they're still here, the pickin's are free.
