Liquid asphalt and roofing tar
Liquid asphalt and roofing tar are considered hazardous materials and are accepted at Washtenaw County's Home Toxics disposal site for proper disposal.
Recycle Right!
Do not put liquid asphalt and roofing tar or the empty containers in your curbside recycling cart or trash bin. These hazardous and toxic chemicals create dangerous conditions for our workers and could contaminate an entire load of recyclables, turning them into trash and not recycled. Dispose of these materials safely at the Washtenaw County Home Toxics site.
Choose Zero Waste!
Ensure you are knowledgeable about using asphalt tar, and consider hiring professionals to help you use it safely so you do not end up with excess. Follow the storage instructions to prevent any product wastage.
