The cities of Chamblee, Brookhaven, and Doraville are collaborating to host a household hazardous waste disposal event. It takes place on Saturday, March 18, 2023 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The waste will be collected at Plaza Fiesta, located at 4166 Buford Hwy — but you’ll want to enter the parking lot from Dresden Drive to get in the drop-off queue.
To bring your items for disposal, you must register in advance for a specific time slot. There are still many time slots available (at the time of writing), but act now if you’d like to participate.

The event is open to residents of these three cities only. You should live in one of these zip codes if you want to participate.
