Mercury: Disposal


It is critical that mercury be properly disposed of to ensure protection to humans, wildlife and the environment. All local health department offices in Utah have containers available to collect mercury containing products from residents. To determine which region you are in check the Local Health Departments and District Engineers page. Please call them first to make sure they have space in their bins.

For general information on disposal options please visit the Environmental Protection Agency’s website for Storing, Transporting and Disposing of Mercury in Your Home.
