Participants must enter the parking lot from Laurel Lane and must provide a state-issued photo I.D. with their current address to verify residency status.

Accepted items include gasoline, lighter fluid, lead-acid batteries, automotive fluids and filters, laundry bleach and other items that should not be thrown away with regular trash.
