Westchester County’s Department of Environmental Facilities (DEF) will be hosting a Household Recycling Day (HRD) Event on Earth Day Saturday, April 20rd from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at FDR State Park, 2957 Crompond Rd., Rte 202, Yorktown. The upcoming HRD event in Yorktown will be the first HRD event in 2024 giving residents across the County an opportunity to conveniently and safely dispose of their household waste. In 2023, DEF hosted five HRD events for over 3,400 County residents. HRD events return in 2024 looking to reach even more residents looking to dispose of their household waste. In addition to properly labelled household chemicals, tires, scrap metal, electronics, appliances, and other special wastes found in a typical household, residents can bring documents for shredding and expired or unwanted medications for disposal to the April 20 HRD Event. Residents should place items in their trunk or backseat and remain in their vehicles while staff unload vehicles in the drop-off area. Generally, the following items are accepted for safe disposal or recycling:

If you are unable to attend the HRD Event, you can still dispose of your hard-to-get-rid-of household waste by making a convenient appointment for the County’s Household-Material Recycling Facility (H-MRF), 15 Woods Road, Valhalla. The H-MRF is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. by appointment, and accepts the same items that are accepted at the HRD events.
