Calendar

West Bloomfield offers its residents two (2) annual Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection Events during the Spring & Fall of each calendar year. The events allow the community a legal and cost-free way to safely dispose of unwanted household chemicals that cannot be collected through regular curbside collection.

In addition to hazardous waste collection, the event includes collections of:

• Electronic waste recycling
• Paper for shredding
• Medical sharps
• Expired medications

In addition, St. Vincent dePaul volunteers will be on-site for a Donation Drive on Saturday. Update: Donation drive cancelled due to pandemic.

• Friday, September 26, 2020 from 1 pm to 7 pm
• Saturday, September 26, 2020 9 am – 2 pm

You must wear a face mask for this year’s event!
You must be a West Bloomfield, Orchard Lake or Sylvan Lake resident (with ID) to participate in this event.

Your Kimberley North Improvement Association (KNIA) annual dues must be received by April 1st every year. Contact JP Carroll Company (the property management company for Kimberley North) if you misplaced your invoice or have any questions.

Payments received after April 1 are subject to additional late fees.

A mobile ON-SITE paper shredding company will provide secure destruction of personal, financial, medical and legal residential documents. Open to residents of all four communities, no appointments.
