Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility

Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility on S Portland Ave is where Oklahoma City residents take household hazardous materials that shouldn't go in the regular trash. Neighbors and homeowners from around the city and nearby rural areas use it when they need to get rid of old chemicals, paint, or similar items safely.

Pull into the lot off South Portland and you’ll see an entrance booth and a couple of lanes for drive-up drop-offs; this is set up for cars and small trucks more than large commercial rigs. There are covered drop-off bays or collection points where material is unloaded from vehicles, and traffic can back up during busy times like spring cleanup or after storms. Many collection sites in Oklahoma use a scale or charge by weight, so be prepared for a brief stop before leaving and for staff to direct where to put items. Expect a utilitarian, working-yard look - concrete, metal canopies, and labeled containers rather than anything fancy.
