Dispose of Old Pesticide for Free! ODA Waste Pesticide Collection Program
Waste Pesticide Collection Program
Unused or unwanted pesticides, especially those in aging or damaged containers, can accidentally expose people to chemicals or cause pesticides to accidently enter waterways in many ways. ODA offers free collection events for proper pesticide disposal from agricultural and commercial applicators. Inventory from pesticide retailers, up to 1,000lbs per company per year, is occasionally considered to fill smaller events. Household pesticides can be disposed of through the Household Hazardous Waste Program. These events are partially funded by pesticide registration fees. Over 719,000 lbs of pesticides have been collected and removed from the environment since 2006.
