DO:

Read the label – It often has disposal instructions
Use it up if possible – Best way to avoid waste
Take hazardous products (bleach, ammonia, drain cleaners) to a local hazardous waste site
Recycle containers if they’re empty and rinsed (check your local guidelines)
✔ Store chemicals safely until proper disposal day

DON’T:

🚫 Don’t pour unused product down the drain or toilet – It can harm plumbing and the environment
🚫 Don’t mix leftover chemicals – Could create toxic reactions
🚫 Don’t throw full bottles in household trash – They may leak or ignite
