The Authority sponsors three Household Hazardous Waste and Electronic Waste Events at the Dempster Fire School in Lawrence Township each year. The facility is located at 350 Lawrence Station Road, Lawrenceville, NJ, 08648.  More than 2,900 residents participate in this program. Residents bring used motor oil, aerosol cans, antifreeze, paint, flammables and other household chemical waste for proper disposal.

Two additional Electronic Waste (only) events are held in the parking lot across from the County Administration Building at 640 South Broad Street in Trenton.  Mercer County residents may bring used electronics, including computers, televisions, and printers (proper identification required). These products are collected and sent to a recycling facility for processing.
