It is important to dispose of household hazardous waste safely. Household hazardous waste includes everyday products. These can include bleach, garden and pool chemicals, and cleaning solvents purchased from supermarkets and hardware stores.

Throughout the year, Brisbane residents can drop off the items for free on designated collection days. Items must remain in their original containers and not be mixed. Dispose of items like brake fluid, pool chemicals, petrol and marine fuel, as well as insecticides.
