About this Event

All non-houshold organizations now have a cost-effective and environmentally sound way to dispose of their hazardous waste.

The El Paso County Household Hazardous Waste Facility is accepting hazardous waste from entities through its Very Small Quantity Generator (VSQG) Program. This fee-based program is operated in accordance with The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, Hazardous Materials and Waste Management Division Guidelines. A VSQG designation limits the type and quantity of waste that can be accepted.
