Empty aerosol cans are safe for the trash; Leftovers should be brought to your Household Hazardous Waste Collection Site

Empty cleaning products can be recycled or discarded with other household waste. Unused amounts of cleaning products can generally be safely disposed of down the drain or in the trash. That's not the case with all products found around the home. For those products that do require special handling, such as solvent-based paints, used motor oil and certain pesticides, household hazardous waste collection programs are an important resource

Chemicals in illegally disposed hazardous waste can be released into the environment and contaminate our air, water, soil, and possibly the food we eat, potentially causing serious health problems in humans and wildlife.
