Great reminder from Charleston County Environmental Management!!

Tomorrow’s the day. Time to clear out the garage, closet, shed and that one corner you’ve been avoiding. 🧹🔋💻

Join us tomorrow, Saturday, September 12, for the Town of Mount Pleasant’s Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day.

Bring your unwanted household items, including electronics, paint, batteries, household chemicals, and more, and let us help you dispose of them properly.

📅 Saturday, September 12
⏰ 8 a.m. to noon

Whether it’s an old TV, leftover paint, a box of mystery cords or batteries that have been sitting in a drawer for years, tomorrow is a good day to finally check them off the list.

Load it up, bring it by, and let’s clean out some clutter together.

That old laptop under the stairs you’re keeping “just in case”? This is the case. 💻

If you haven’t turned it on in years, September 12 might be its retirement party.

Bring your old laptops, computers, TVs, monitors, and printers to the Town of Mount Pleasant’s Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day.
📅 Saturday, September 12
⏰ 8 a.m. to noon
📍 NEW LOCATION: PSD Operations Center

We’ll also accept paint, household chemicals, and batteries.

So go find that laptop, the mystery charger that probably doesn’t belong to anything anymore, and everything else you’ve been meaning to clean out.

Save it for September 12!

That paint has been sitting there long enough. 🎨

You know the cans. The half-empty gallon from the guest bedroom. The mystery color you’re definitely never using again. The stain from a project you finished three projects ago.

It’s time.
Bring your latex paint, oil-based paint, and stains to the Town’s Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day:

📅 Saturday, September 12
⏰ 8 a.m. to noon
📍 NEW LOCATION: PSD Operations Center
1351 Sweetgrass Basket Parkway

While you’re cleaning out the shelf, we’ll also take household chemicals, batteries, and e-waste.

Save it for September 12. Your garage will thank you.
