Disposal Days program for getting rid of household debris returns Saturday, Feb. 8
The City of Hayward's Maintenance Services Department is hosting its next Disposal Days event on Saturday, Feb. 8. These events provide community members additional opportunities to dispose of household debris safely and legally free of charge.
The Disposal Days program allows residents to bring up to five cubic yards of household items for disposal to the City transfer station six times per year on the second Saturday of the months of February, April, June, August, October and December. For reference, five cubic yards of household items is about the equivalent of one full bed of an average sized pickup truck.
Program registration for the Feb. 8 event is now open here. The bi-monthly events will be held regardless of the weather conditions at the time.
Disposal Days is open to residents of incorporated Hayward only; preregistration and proof of Hayward residency is required. The following items are not accepted at the transfer station:
- Hazardous materials, including paint, motor oil, solvents, cleaners, pesticides tires and car batteries.
- Objects over 75 pounds (except furniture and appliances)
