One-Day Collection Events
The City offers household hazardous waste collection events every spring and fall as a convenient way to dispose of hazardous materials and prevent them from ending up in the Miramar Landfill.
Oil, antifreeze, oil filters, auto batteries, household batteries and fluorescent bulbs are accepted at these events. If you have other Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) to dispose of, please check the City's HHW webpage for information on proper disposal options. No other items will be accepted.
Recycling events are funded by the Environmental Services and Public Utilities Departments and a grant from the State of California Department of Resources, Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle).
Visit the CalRecycle website for more information on recycling and to find a used oil and oil filter recycling location near you.
