Colo Vale resident, Katrina, who attended last year’s Chemical CleanOut event said involvement in programs like this is a great way to keep problem waste out of landfill.
“It’s a fantastic opportunity for us to clean out our chemicals, I like that it is a free service and protects our environment from incorrect disposal,” she said.
Residents can also drop of their items free of charge at the Community Recycling Centre all year round.
