Jones County "Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day," is set for 8 a.m.-noon Saturday, April 15th, at the South Mississippi Fairgrounds in Laurel.

Residents with materials they want to get rid of need only pull up to the site that morning with the items that need to be disposed of in the back of their pickup or on their trailer. County and volunteer laborers will take care of the rest.

Residents can bring just about any household item, including appliances, aerosol cans, ammunition, antifreeze and ammonia, batteries, building supplies, electronics, old furniture, paint, poisons, etc. - just about anything except explosives, laboratory chemicals, medical and commercial waste.
