The Waukesha County Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection Sites are open. 

Sites have been experiencing above-average use and wait times may have increased. The busiest times are typically within the first 2 hours of a site openening. Thank you for your understanding.

Please note there are new safety measures in place in an effort to keep both staff and residents safe:

• Stay in your car at all times.
• Show proof of residency through the car window.
• All items need to be in the trunk - staff will not open up back seat doors to collect material.
• Material should be in a box or container for easy collection. This box will not be returned (only gas cans will be returned).  

Begining September 30th, the Franklin drop-off location will be CLOSED.  The last day of collections will be Saturday, September 26, 2020.  All other drop-off locations will remain the same.
