Reduce, Reuse & Recycle Guide for Napa County This guide highlights some of the expanding opportunities to reduce the “waste” we send to landfills. Most of what ends up in the landfill isn’t waste at all but “resources” that still have a great deal of value. Recycling and reusing materials isn’t just good for the environment, it is good for the economy too.

If not disposed of properly, these items will release toxic substances that find their way into our air, water and eventually into the food we eat. What is Universal Waste? Universal waste or “u-waste” are common items that have been traditionally thrown in the trash. They are a type of hazardous waste. Materials that cannot go into the trash include: • All alkaline & rechargeable batteries; lead-acid batteries (car) • Items containing mercury: thermostats, thermometers, switches (e.g. pilot light sensors, clothes irons, blood pressure gauge, novelties such as maze games & talking greeting cards) • Fluorescent lamps & tubes, metal halide lamps, sodium vapor lamps NAPA COUNTY RECYCLING GUIDE www.NapaMax.org • Video display devices: TVs, monitors, laptops • Electronic devices (with a digital component): computers, printers, PDAs, cell phones, telephones, radios, stereos, microwave ovens Why is Universal Waste a Problem? Chemicals and toxic substances released from these materials can contaminate our environment and pose a risk to health & wildlife. • Electronics waste (E-waste) is responsible for 70% of all heavy metals found in U.S. landfills (lead, mercury, cadmium, copper, etc.). • A TV or computer monitor contains 7 lbs of lead! • Mercury and other substances released into the air and water are toxic to wildlife & humans. Mercury is easily absorbed through the lungs and skin. • The mercury from one fluorescent bulb can ruin 6,000 gallons of drinking water.

Many products found in your home or business contain hazardous substances that can potentially harm you or the environment when mishandled or improperly disposed. Hazardous products become hazardous “wastes” when we want to get rid of them. It is illegal and unsafe to dispose of hazardous waste in the trash, on the ground or down storm drains. HAZARDOUS WASTE COLLECTION FACILITY FOR SAFE DISPOSAL Every Fri & Sat; 9am-4pm For more information call: NAPA COUNTY RECYCLING GUIDE www.NapaMax.org 1-800-984-9661 14 Se e t l o c at a b, ion # 4 The Napa-Vallejo Hazardous Waste Collection Facility is for safe and legal disposal of unusable hazardous products. Please remember to pack products carefully so they won’t mix or spill. Transport in trunk if possible. The facility accepts all types of hazardous waste except: Radioactives • Explosives • Ammunition For highway safety, there is a limit of 15 gallons or 125 pounds of hazardous waste per trip. Households: No appointment required; no fee. • Businesses: Appointment only; fee for service. Improper and illegal disposal can contaminate our drinking water, impede waste water treatment plants, pollute local waterways and endanger workers. It can also lead to penalties and fines for businesses. Protect your business and employees by disposing of unwanted, unused, and out-of-date hazardous wastes properly. Hazardous Waste Disposal For Businesses Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator Program A business that generates less than 220 pounds or 27 gallons of hazardous waste a month is considered a Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG). This program offers businesses an affordable way to comply with state laws and regulations for disposal of hazardous wastes. Wastes can be consolidated, saving each business the expense of hiring an independent waste hauler. Appointments are required and there is a charge for this service. Call the Hazardous Waste Collection Facility for more information @ 1-800-984-9661 or the Napa County Department of Environmental Management @ 253-4471. Examples of household hazardous wastes Household: Polishes & cleaners Oven cleaners • Drain openers Lighter fluids Unwanted medications • Syringes Cosmetics Fluorescent bulbs Rechargeable or Alkaline batteries Garden or Landscape: Fungicides • Insecticides Herbicides Pool chemicals Garage or Workshop: Latex & oil-based paints Paint thinner & strippers Wood preservatives Grease & rust solvents Wood & metal cleaners Glues & cements Photo chemicals Antifreeze • Transmission fluids Gasoline & fuel additives Carburetor cleaners Batteries Used oil & oil filters Rethink & Reduce Toxic Wastes Can the product be used by someone else? 1) Buy the right product for the job. There is no magic bullet! What do you want the product to do? 2) Buy the least toxic alternative. Many manufacturers are responding to consumer demands for alternatives. 3) Buy only the amount you need or can use up. Will you be able to use up the “jumbo” or “bargain” size product before it expires? 4) Store the product properly so it doesn’t become unusable. Keep in covered, dry, safe place. www.NapaRecycling.com If you have an unwanted product that someone else could use - don’t let it sit on the shelf! Bring it to the Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility where they will determine if it can be put in the “ReUse Locker.” Unwanted household hazardous wastes are very expensive for the County to dispose. A better option for both your budget and the environment is to prevent the “waste” from the start. Our Water Our World Choose less toxic products for your home and garden.. Look for the "Our Water, Our World" symbol before you buy. Below are Napa County participating stores: Napa: Orchard Supply Hardware • Van Winden Garden Center • Zeller's Ace Hardware St. Helena: Central Valley Builders • Whiting Nursery Calistoga: Silverado Ace PRODUCT NAME www.NapaMax.org ……Is a program that provides information about less-toxic alternatives to managing home and garden pests. In each store look for: • User-friendly Fact Sheets on common pests & less toxic ways to control them including product recommendations • Tags on store shelves to help you find the less-toxic products recommended. Pesticides To Learn More: Visit these sites for in-depth discussion on the benefits of reducing our use of toxics, examples of product substitutes, and fact sheets for specific problems. www.OurWaterOurWorld.org www.WAtoxics.org www.GreenSeal.org www.GreenConsumer.cc Whether it is a snail outdoors or cockroaches indoors, prevention and maintenance are the key words for pest control. In addition to less toxic products, there are many effective alternatives to pesticides and the Our Water Our World fact sheets are a great way to get information about the specific pest that’s bugging you. Some examples of alternatives to pesticides include: 1) eliminating attractions (drain standing water, seal all garbage containers, remove pet food dishes after use, weatherstrip doors, use window screens) 2) non-invasive methods to remove the pest (sticky traps, fly strips, pit traps) and 3) pest-specific barriers (teflon tape, plant covers, copper barriers).
