Monmouth County Household Hazardous Waste Facility

A county-run household hazardous waste spot off Shafto Road for Tinton Falls residents and anyone in Monmouth County with leftover paint, cleaners, or old batteries. Locals use it when the curbside options won’t take hazardous stuff and spring cleanup rolls around.

Drive up to a small entrance booth where staff will check what’s in the car and point you to the right drop-off lane; there’s usually a short line on busy days. Vehicles pull up to different stations for liquids, batteries, and other household hazardous items, and traffic is directed by cones and signs. The site is clearly sectioned with covered canopies and pallets, not a slick showroom - more practical than pretty. Weekends and early spring get the longest waits, so the lot can feel crowded then.
