Gardening Tools
Updated
Reuse any tools that are still in good shape, and repair them if you can!
Tools that are metal can go in the recycling.
Mixed materials are not recyclable and go in the landfill cart.
Electric tools must be recycled as E-Waste at the Household Hazardous Waste facility below. Gas-powered tools can be recycled as well once fluids are drained and properly recycled separately as Hazardous Waste.
