As residential movers, we see a lot of homes in transition, usually in a somewhat chaotic state as people move in or out.

While packing for a move, most people are also purging: getting rid of items that don’t fit the new place, are unwanted or are too difficult to transport. Among these are usually some articles that fit the category of household hazardous waste (HHW).

In any case, your unwanted HHW requires special care in disposal. So plan ahead in your moving process to get rid of it properly.
