Do you have household hazard waste such as paint, automotive products, batteries or expired medicine you'd like to dispose but don't know how—or where?

Get junk like that out of your garage on Saturday, Sept. 7, from 9 a.m to 3 p.m. by dropping it off at the South Pasadena Unified School District parking lot on Diamond Avenue and Mission Street.
