Warren County is planning up to two (2) county-wide Household Hazardous Waste Collection Events on a yearly basis. Events will either be held at the DPW Office/Shop at 4028 Main Street Warrensburg, NY or at the Town of Queensbury Town Hall/DPW Shop at Bay and Haviland Roads, Queensbury, NY. Warren County will contract with a fully approved and licensed hazardous waste management contractor to assist in planning, budgeting, supervision and management at the collection sites during the events. Bidder will provide the proper personnel and supervisors trained and experienced in the proper handling, testing, packaging, transport, and disposal of materials collected in accordance with all applicable Federal and State regulations regarding management of hazardous wastes.
Warren County has approximately 65,000 residents. 2021 will be the fifth annual Household Hazardous Waste Collection Event sponsored by Warren County. The events will be conducted at a New York State Department of Environmental Conservation approved site. Residents will be asked to bring limited quantities of specific acceptable wastes in original labeled containers for disposal. Residents will be asked to pre-register for a time to drop-off waste. The actual level of participation is uncertain, however participation has varied throughout the prior years with an average participation of 200 household participating.
Bidders should arrange for site visits by contacting Maiken Holmes at Warren County Engineering Department at (518) 761-6556.
