News Flash

Hurricane season is starts June 1, and many of our Palm Beach County neighbors are making sure they are prepared. As you update hurricane supplies, keep in mind that some items may not be placed in the garbage, but instead, should be brought to one of the SWA’s Home Chemical and Recycling Centers. 

Supplies requiring special disposal include:

• gasoline and oil from generators 
• propane tanks
