County Landfill "Saturday Drop Off" Hazardous Household Waste Collection is May 11

The next Citrus County Landfill Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Disposal Program Saturday Collection Drop off will be May 11, 2024, from 9:00am to 1:00pm at the Citrus County Landfill, 230 W Gulf to Lake Hwy, Lecanto.

In addition to the ongoing HHW program on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday of each week, the Landfill provides a quarterly Saturday collection to facilitate residents who work or are otherwise unable to participate during the week. Please keep in mind that wait times will be longer on a Saturday drop-off day.

Assessed households may bring up to 10 gallons (or 60 pounds) of HHW for proper disposal on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, or on quarterly Saturday drop-off days from 9:00am until 1:00pm, for no additional charge. Every pound above those amounts will cost .35 cents each. Acceptable waste products include (but are not limited to): paint supplies, automotive products, poisons, pesticides, cleaning products, etc.

When arriving at the landfill, residents will be instructed to wait in line until parked in front of the facility, then leave their vehicle with a receipt from the scale house. A faculty member will meet residents in their car with a cart to move and weigh any product waste.
