There is no charge for the collection. 

Items accepted are pesticides or mercury containing items.  Pesticides include insect killers, weed killers, rat poison and fungicides.  Mercury containing items include jars of mercury, thermometers, thermostats, switches and button batteries.  Please bring leaking pesticide containers and all mercury items in a sealed plastic bag or secure container.  Pesticides will be accepted from the public and businesses.  Mercury will be accepted from the public only.
