Douglas County Household Chemical Roundup

Posted at 5:03 PM, May. 30, 2007

It's that time of the year where the garage and home are cleaned.  Sometimes you find items that you know you shouldn't throw in the trash as they are hazardous but what should you do with them?  On Saturday, August 11, 2007 and Saturday, September 22, 2007 Douglas County will be holding roundups from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm to collect the below items from Douglas County Residents.  Make sure you bring a driver's license or utility bill showing your Douglas County resident status.

  • Paint
  • House, garden, and pool chemicals
  • Automotive fluids
  • Fuels
  • Propane tanks between 1 and 20 lbs
  • Vehicle and household batteries
  • Mercury
  • Passenger vehicle and pickup truck tires removed from the rim.

For additional information you may call the Roundup Hotline at 303-846-6249 or visit them online

Thank you for the reminder that we should dispose of chemicals properly. Far too many people are disrespectful to the environment and our children are going to have to pay for our mistakes.

I agree that we need to dispose of chemicals for our children's sake.  It is nice when communities can hold these type of roundups though I do wish the funds were available to hold chemical roundups more often than once a year in each community.
