How to safely dispose of cleaning chemicals
Safely dispose any household cleaning products marked with a hazard symbol, for free at a household hazardous waste drop-off site:

- Glass cleaner
- Ammonia
- Spot removers

Special instructions
- Use original containers where possible, or use a sealed, spill-proof container and make sure it is clearly labelled.
- You can bring up to 20 litres of household chemicals per week.
- Never flush chemicals down your toilet, sink or drain as they harm the environment and/or the pipes in your home.
