It I very rare that I encounter a business that is this rude and unhelpful. It seems they intentionally want to make it as difficult as possible to recycle for CESQG, a process which used to be streamlined and seamless with the City of Ventura. This is a massive step down since Clean Harbors took over. They act extremely annoyed if you ask any questions, cut you off, and do the opposite of partnering with you to achieve the positive goal of doing the right thing to recycle. The options for dropping off waste are dramatically reduced and you have to drive to another city instead of doing it in your own. Alarming. What a sad choice for Ventura County. Dramatically reduces the quality of life for living an doing business in this county, transforming a basic service we have easily accomplished for 25 years into a huge nightmare.
I recently was faced with the task of cleaning up and disposing of an accumulation of many years of household hazardous waste. These items include paint, garden sprays, pesticides and assorted household cleaners. I was able to properly dispose of these items by utilizing three local resources.
Del Norte Recycling Center accepted up to five gallons of water base paints if the original labels are on the cans.
Dunn Edwards Paints also accepts water base and oil base paints with original labels on the cans.
Clean Harbor in Camarillo accepts just about any household hazard waste items that most of us would have in our homes. They only accept drop offs on the second Friday and Saturday of the month and you must make an appointment.
All three of these facilities were superb and make it easy to properly dispose of household hazardous waste.
They offer an important service - allowing you to dispose of household and automotive waste properly. Be sure to get an appointment!
Make sure to tell then if you want your containers returned once emptied
Corporate often over works or miss schedules drivers. California is NOT Massachusetts. Someone IN California should be scheduling so workers can be home with their families. Shame on clean harbors.
