All Household Hazardous Waste including antifreeze; products containing mercury; oil-based paint and household chemicals will not be accepted at our facility. Household Hazardous Waste Collection Days for the residents of Peterborough & Sharon are held at the Keene Recycling Center (55 Old Summit Road, Surry NH, 03431). There are 24 opportunities from March to October.  Please click here for scheduled dates.

There is a 10 gallon limit per visit in Keene - a fee is charged for anything above the 10 gallons.  It is suggested you call (603) 352-5739 for details in advance. Payment is by check only. No cash or credit cards accepted. 

Part of pollution prevention is "product substitution": Using a less toxic or non-toxic product. If you would like to receive a list of alternative household products, please stop by the Recycling Center.   If you have more questions about household hazardous waste, please give us a call at (603) 924-8095.
