Reuse store at SRTS

Products that come to the HHW facility that are mostly full, in thier original container, and have intact labels, are made availabe for reuse for free. A wide selection of paints, cleaners and other household products can be found at the Reuse Store next to the HHW drop-off area. An average of 10,000 lbs per month of these materials are diverted through the store.
