Aquarium
Disposal Options
If an aquarium is in good condition (no leaks) please consider donating it to a local organization. For more information on local donations visit our donations page. If it is not in good condition, it may be thrown away with your household trash or brought to the District Transfer Station for disposal if it is too large for your household trash. If aquarium lighting contains fluorescent or metal halide lamps, these must be removed prior to disposal since they contain mercury. Mercury lamps may be brought to the District Transfer Station for special recycling. Learn more about special recycling for mercury lamps.
