Columbus Grove Is "Going Green"

Columbus Grove in Irvine and Tustin is doing its part to help homeowners save the environment in small ways.

Homeowners can take their used batteries and old light bulbs to the Grove House (main clubhouse area near the pool on Sonora Street) during business hours (including weekends) and have it collected for appropriate disposal.  Such items should NOT be thrown away in regular trash cans and dumpsters.

For other hazardous waste materials, you can take it to a hazardous waste dumping site off Valley Oak and Irvine Center Drive in the city of Irvine, adjacent to the dog park there.  You just drive up, tell them what you're dropping off for disposal, get it out of your vehicle (the workers there will likely help you), sign a form documenting it, and then drive off.  This is where you can dispose of paint cans, motor oil, etc.
