Proper Disposal of Waste

Trash Disposal

  • Please take items to the trash bins located in the alley between Engineering IV and Boelter Hall or the CNSI loading dock.  Items must fit into the dumpster.  
  • Please contact Anthony Redon, aredon@seas.ucla.edu, if you need assistance with disposing of large or bulky items. 

Chemicals

  • Dispose of all hazardous and chemical waste via UCLA EH&S Hazardous Waste Department.

  • DO NOT dispose of chemical waste in trash cans, down drains, in storm-drains, outside, by evaporation, etc.

  • Your regular hazardous waste pick-up: Engineering IV Loading Dock, Thursdays, 10:15 – 10:45AM. Waste must be tagged – consult your Faculty Advisor for more information on how to do this.
