On Saturday, May 5, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., the Town of Greenwich is holding the annual Household Hazardous Waste Day for both Greenwich residents and participating towns with proof of residency. If for any reason you don’t want to wait another month to get rid of your household hazardous waste in Darien, then drive to Greenwich on Saturday. Head to the Island Beach Parking Lot at 121 Arch St. It’s the lot just to the south of Interstate 95 at Exit 3. Here’s a Google Map and if you go to this Web page you’ll see where the collection will take place in the parking lot and where to enter (not shown: the inevitable line of cars, although you can see where the line will be).

Darien residents can bring household hazardous waste to various collection events held in southwest Fairfield County starting Saturday, April 28 in Weston and continuing about once a month through October. The next weekend, on May 5, there will be another one in Greenwich (see schedule below). Darien’s own Household Hazardous Waste Day is on June 2 and takes place on the south side of the Noroton Heights Railroad Station (the side closest to Interstate 95) where area residents will need to use the Hollow Tree Ridge Road entrance. Darien residents can recycle paint by dropping it off at the Recycling Center — also known as the Dump or the town Transfer Station — so no paint is accepted for Darienites at the Darien household hazardous waste collection. But if you don’t have a dump sticker, you can still go to a household hazardous waste collection event in a nearby town.
