Household Hazardous Waste
The city of Peoria sponsors various collection days throughout the year. Our goal is to divert all household hazardous waste from area landfills and recycle or dispose of it properly. For additional information, please call the Solid Waste Division at 623-773-7160.

Glendale is now providing Peoria residents a permanent drop-off location for electronics recycling. The electronics recycling (E-Waste) program offers a convenient way to recycle unwanted electronic items safely and responsibly. The E-Waste drop-off area is located at the Glendale Landfill. Peoria residents can bring both working and non-working electronic items to the landfill anytime during regular operating hours, and the program is free of charge.

When bringing HHW items, remember these tips
- Please bring with you a current water bill or drivers license as proof of residency.
- If possible, seal items in their original containers or clearly label all items not in their original containers.
- Place items in a cardboard box that we can recycle for you. Wrap glass bottles in cloth or newspaper so that they do not break while transporting.
- Do not bring your items in plastic or cardboard boxes that you wish to keep, this increases the amount of time our staff spends unloading your vehicle and increases the wait for others.
- Follow directions once you reach the event site, drive carefully.
- When you arrive at the event staff will unload the HHW materials from your vehicle.
- Please turn off your vehicle and stay inside your vehicle at all times.
