What is Accepted
Eco-Depots are free collections for properly disposing of household hazardous waste from RI households. Household hazardous waste is anything labeled with a skull and crossbones, or words like 'toxic', 'poison', 'flammable', 'combustible', etc. Please visit
www.ecodepotri.org for a full list of accepted items. Examples include:
- mercury containing devices
- automotive fluids
- fertilizers
- pesticides
- pool chemicals
- paint, polishes and
- propane tanks (no larger than 20lbs.)
Appointments are Required
Appointments are made to prevent everyone from showing up at once, which reduces
wait time in line. We service 25 cars every 15 minutes—you won’t even need to get out
of your vehicle! Appointments may be scheduled by emailing ecodepot@rirrc.org or by
calling 401-942-1430 ext. 3241.
accepted.
The HHW collection is for households only, no commercial entities/materials will be.
