Great! Will you do us a favor and repost a couple days before the event?

FYI -
I'd inquired w/ the county about aerosol cans (and non-refillable propane cannisters). I rec'd an email reply advising that aerosol cans should go in regular garbage. There has been no direct response regarding the small non-refillable propane cannisters.

If you are able to open the valve so there is no gas or pressure then I would think regular garbage is OK, although they may be recycleable.

Great Event

This was a great event. First time in years that I've used it. Very simple, the staff was great. You just pull up, they unload all your stuff and you leave. When is the next one?

I missed this one.

When is the next one?

Or is there somewhere I can take hazardous waste at any time?

I need to know where I can take paint to be properly disposed. Today is August 7, I missed the date in march.
