Hazardous Waste generated by businesses are not eligible for the free Residential Hazardous Waste Collection events. Find a licensed hazardous waste hauler in our listing of permitted companies or your current waste hauler may offer hazardous waste disposal services. Your company may also qualify for the Small Quantity Generator Collection program available to all Los Angeles County businesses.
