NoHaz - July Collection Event

To reduce wait time at collection events, we ask that you register and pay applicable fees ahead of time. If you are unable to register online, registration forms will be available onsite. If fees are applicable, you can pay at the event with cash or a check (written out to Oakland County NoHaz). Residents of member communities can attend any collection event, but we ask that you attend only one this year, if possible.

STEP ONE

Determine Your Ticket Type: All Oakland County residents can register, but the cost varies by community. Please determine what the applicable cost is for your community.*

    1. General HHW** (unloaded first) 2. Paint (unloaded second) 3. Electronics (unloaded third)
  • Clearly separate HHW from other items that should remain in your vehicle
  • Bring acceptable HHW*** only; liquids must be in sealed, leak-proof five-gallon containers or smaller. Note: If you want bins, boxes or gas cans back, tell workers BEFORE items are unloaded.
  • Present your driver’s license or other proof of residency and your registration ticket (either a printed or digital copy)
  • Remain in your vehicle
