From: "Kelley, Craig" <ckelley@cambridgema.gov> Date: Friday, November 1, 2019 at 11:44 AM Subject: Household Hazardous Waste collection at Danehy Park tomorrow, Saturday, 2 November from 9AM-1PM Hello Everyone: If you haven’t recently taken your old batteries and used oil and so forth to the DPW yard’s recycling center (open Tuesday and Thursday 4-7:30 PM and Saturday 9-4, but they don’t take everything so check their list first), you may want to drop off your various household hazardous waste items at the Danehy Park (yes, it’s back there again and will be at Danehy for the foreseeable future) Household Hazardous Waste collection day tomorrow, Saturday 2 November from 9 AM-1 PM at the Field Street Lot, near Danehy Park and Fern Street. This event is free and open to Cambridge residents (proof of residency required). Proper disposal of materials helps protect public health and the environment; if you’re unsure of how to dispose of items properly, or what items are accepted at the event, download the “Zero Waste Cambridge” app for iPhone/Android, or click here to learn more. It is pretty a well-run event, but the lines can be long (especially if you are not either walking or biking your stuff there), so you may want to get there early and also be prepared to wait a bit. And do make sure that they’re going to be able to take what you bring. It’d be a pain to show up with, for example, a bunch of empty compressed gas cylinders (which they don’t take at the Collection day) and have to bring them home. You’ll be really happy to get your various closets and cabinets and basements free and clear of this stuff again! Have a great day.
