Yearly Household Hazardous Materials Collection Program

Some household hazardous materials can lead to contamination of groundwater, well water or other water sources when spilled on the ground, poured down the drain or placed in trash containers. To prevent this, the Midland County Health Department sponsors the Household Hazardous Materials Collection Program. The program provides an opportunity to safely and properly dispose of most hazardous materials you may have in your home including automotive, cleaning, paint and garden products.

The Hazardous Materials Collection Program is usually offered during the months of June through September.

For more information, visit the Midland County Health Department website or call the department at 989-832-6681.

Curbside Collection of Recyclables

Recycling is collected curbside every other week, Monday through Friday, on regular refuse collection days for all city of Midland residents.
