You can dispose of:

• Fertilizers
• Automotive fluids
• Cooking oil
• Batteries
• Fluorescent light bulbs
• Small ammunition
• Smoke alarms
• Aerosol and hobby paint
• Pool chemicals

You can't bring latex paint, tires, electronic waste like computers or phones, recyclables and commercial waste.

The event is sponsored by the Metropolitan Environmental Trust and is free for all Tulsa County residents.
