Government
Cities, counties, solid waste districts, townships, boroughs and other public agencies throughout the United States recognize that home generated special waste streams must be properly and carefully managed.
Through the convenient door-to-door service, we collect home generated chemicals, electronics, garden chemicals, sharps, vehicle maintenance items and hobby products. We recycle 75% or more of the materials collected, and, in some programs, the recycling rate has reached 90%. This program can become an important addition to your existing recycling program.
If not recycled, materials are diverted from the sanitary landfill. All results are documented in reports that provide the weight of materials by category diverted. This can help communities meet their state and local diversion goals.
Review the section “Door-to-Door Household Hazardous Waste Programs” for more information on our premier service.
The management of permanent facilities and temporary events is addressed in their respective sections.
A variety of specialty programs have their own pages. The Door-to-Door program can be all inclusive of these separate programs or At Your Door Special CollectionSM can custom design a program for your community. Stand alone collection of Universal Waste, for example, or add the collection of sharps.
At Your Door Special CollectionSM has created a unique public-private partnership program to collect home generated sharps. Read more about it.
At Your Door Special CollectionSM has a call center staffed with "live" operators who accept calls from 8 AM Eastern through 5 PM Pacific. Our operators are highly trained, they learn each program's unique characteristics. Our commitment to our public agency clients and their residents is to retain our live U.S. based operators.
At Your Door Special CollectionSM serves small businesses often referred to as CESQG’s. This very large group of smaller hazardous waste generators range from churches to distribution facilities and even public agency corporate yards. Because of the minimal amounts of waste generated by CESQG's, they do not always receive the best pricing and service from the large hazardous waste firms. Visit our small business page; see how your community can sponsor a CESQG program at very little cost to your agency or the tax payer.
