About this center

The Ingham County Health Department runs this seasonal household hazardous waste collection at 5303 South Cedar Street in Lansing. Collection days fall every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon from the beginning of May through the end of September. Oil-based paint, stains, mineral spirits, and sealers are accepted, but latex paint is not. Sharps must arrive in a sealed, puncture-resistant container such as a rigid detergent bottle or plastic coffee tub, never a milk jug or bag, and fluorescent lights must be packed individually, not taped together. The site turns away appliances, electronics, car batteries, medications, cooking oil, waste oil, and smoke detectors.
