This document discusses proper disposal of hazardous chemical waste from homes. It lists common recyclable and non-recyclable items found in homes, including plastic, paper, glass, and items containing chemicals like pesticides, acids, and aerosol cans. These chemical items should not be thrown in the trash but taken to special collection facilities for safe disposal or recycling, as they can be toxic, corrosive, or flammable and produce dangerous fumes if burned in garbage trucks. With proper disposal of recyclables and hazardous chemicals, landfill space can be preserved.
