Please be on the lookout for local radio social media posts saying you can drop hazardous waste off at our facility. Ingham County can accept that material, we are not authorized to do so. It appears to have been an AI written piece that got the locations wrong.
Fun fact: we have been helping provide material for ill-advised schemes since 1937!
Rachel (ɹeɪt͡ʃəl) Taylor, envelope maker ✉️@rachelvetica.bsky.social · 5d agoI kind of wish I lived near this surplus store so I could buy a bunch of random surplus stuff but at the same time it's probably best that I don't live near it because I'd buy way too much random surplus stuff (to potentially try and use for ill-advised schemes)
There are two months left for Ingham County residents to dispose of their chemicals, paints, & more with the Ingham County Health Department! For more information, visit www.ingham.org/health/envir...
