re: Hazardous Waste Disposal day is a cluster of all time.

Household hazardous waste generated as described below is excluded from the definition of hazardous waste:
While most hazardous wastes that are ignitable, reactive, corrosive or toxic in America are regulated under Subtitle C of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Congress developed an exclusion for household waste. Under this exclusion, found in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 261.4, wastes generated by normal household activities (e.g., routine house and yard maintenance) are excluded from the definition of hazardous waste. Specifically, wastes covered by the household hazardous waste exclusion must satisfy two criteria:
1. The waste must be generated by individuals on the premise of a temporary or permanent residence, and
2. The waste stream must be composed primarily of materials found in wastes generated by consumers in their homes.

My wife is a (sarcastically) recycling Nazi, so we'll keep various things (batteries, compact fluorescent lights, etc) for months in an attempt to find a CONVENIENT way or place to turn them in.
Recently, though, between scheduling collection days maybe once or twice a year, long and slow lines at LSU, and several stores not accepting, say, old medicines, batteries, and CFL's even though web sites say "bring it here" we've taken a different approach.
Simply put, it all goes into the garbage can now. I'm more than willing to do reasonable things to recycle, but when it becomes unreasonable, and inconvenient, I'm not going out of my way, and wasting hours, to comply with a pain-in-the-arse procedure.

I was there for 8:30 and they began to let people in around 8:46 am.
Even though it was raining in biblical proportions, I thought it ran smoothly.
My junk included tires and some metal at the first station and paint, chemicals, and old electronics at the second.
I was unloaded and out of there in 30 minutes.

Under no circumstances in Louisiana or any state are you allowed to take rcra-hazardous waste to a local landfill
What if they don't do a TCLP to confirm its a RCRA waste?

There should be a convenient place to do this year round. No wonder we are such a shithole.
Where I live we have places like that, there is one about 15 minutes from my house. They have a guy there who helps you get things in the correct receptacles and helps unload larger things like TVs. I have never been when there was more than one other person/couple there.
We have a private e-waste recycler that does pickups. There is one in the LP that I looked up but never used for the camp that seems to do the same residential pickups for free in and around BR. IIRC it is Atlas

Some enterprising young person should start a business collecting this stuff. They would do well and probably improve the environment.
