Lithium Batteries
​

There are many forms of lithium batteries including watch batteries all the way up to vaping devices, phones, and electric Barbie jeep batteries. 

These will always start a fire! They cannot overheat or get punctured. Please dispose of these properly so that it doesn't start a fire in your can at home or inside of one of our garbage trucks. 
​
Here are instructions on how to dispose of them.

Hot ashes
​

These will melt your can!!!
They will also always start a fire inside of our garbage truck. 
Please do not dispose of these inside of your can until they have been cooled for an extended period of time. 

​Non depleted aerosol cans

These can cause a fire or explosion if they are not disposed of properly. 
Any aerosol cans MUST be completely dispersed before disposal. 
The can must be completely emptied and pressure gone!

Unexploded fireworks
​

​Do not place these in the regular trash or at a remote site.

If you have some old or unused fireworks, completely submerge them in water and let them sit overnight.
