Hazardous Waste Disposal Scheduled
A countywide Household Hazardous Waste Roundup will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Oct. 20 at Hollywood Park, 1050 Prairie Ave., Inglewood. The roundup provides an opportunity for disposal of waste materials that are not allowed in trash bins.

Waste materials should not exceed five gallons per vehicle. They should be left in the original labeled containers. In addition, the products should be carried in a sturdy box and not mixed together. No explosives, ammunition or radioactive materials will be accepted.
