Stevens County Chemical Recycling Collection

Cleaning out your garage or basement and wondering what to do with those cans of unusable paints,
stains and varnishes? Get rid of them free of charge on Wednesday, June 5th, from 10 am. to 2 pm. at the
County Highway Garage in Chokio.

Acceptable waste items include paint, stains, varnishes, aerosols, lawn and garden pesticides and flammable products.

Examples of waste items not accepted are business waste, explosives, ammunition, asbestos, and fluorescent lights. Once again, this month’s collection will be in Chokio. For more information, contact the Stevens County Environmental Services today at 208-6558.
