HazoHouse
The HazoHouse at Thurston County Waste and Recovery Center in Lacey, Washington, offers a Household Hazardous Waste Drop-off Location for residents of Thurston County, providing a drive-thru facility for safe disposal of various hazardous items such as automotive products, batteries, cleaning supplies, fluorescent lights, paints, pesticides, and more. The service is free for county residents, while businesses need to register and pay a fee. Additionally, there is a HazoHouse Reuse Program available seasonally for Thurston County 501 c 3 non-profits to access donated items for free with an appointment. Visitors are advised to use the south entrance at the center and follow specific guidelines for transporting hazardous wastes.
