Safe Disposal and Recycle Event


Spring 2013 NYC SAFE Disposal Events (Solvents, Automotive, Flammable, Electronics)

The NYC Department of Sanitation is holding five SAFE Disposal Events this spring (one in each borough) to provide NYC residents with a one-stop method to get rid of potentially harmful household products.  Unfortunately, the Queens, Staten Island and Brooklyn events have already taken place.  However, you can still catch the Bronx and Manhattan events:

Bronx . . . Saturday, April 20, 10am-4pm at Yankee Stadium, 151st Street Lot, River Ave and 151st St; cars approach from 150th St up River Ave.

Manhattan . . . Sunday, April 28, 10am-4pm at Columbia University/Teachers College, 120th St between Broadway & Amsterdam Ave; cars approach from 122nd St down Amsterdam Ave.

Who Can Participate:  Only NYC residential waste will be accepted at these NYC SAFE events (no business or institutional waste permitted). No commercial vehicles allowed. Residents MUST provide proof of NYC residency.
