Household Hazardous Waste Facility

HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE FACILITY (HHWF)

MATERIALS EXCHANGE

We need 4-5 gallon plastic buckets with lids in order to distribute paint!
Buckets can be brought to our Household Hazardous Waste Facility during open hours.

Pacific County receives many reusable items at its Household Hazardous Waste Facility. We salvage higher quality latex paint and store them in their original one gallon containers (if the color is adequate or unusual) or we blend the paint into larger batches. We also sometimes receive unopened or nearly full containers of reusable roofing tars, adhesives, joint compounds and other materials. These items are available to the public at no charge. (See disclaimer)

Below you will find posted various salvaged materials that are currently being stored at our HHW facility in Long Beach. If interested in any items, please inquire by telephone or e-mail to Anne Van Ornum. Once our solid waste coordinator has been contacted, then arrangements for pickup can be made.
