Nashua NH Home Seller: What you Need to Know about Hazardous Waste
Attention Nashua NH Home Sellers! As you prepare to market and sell your home, one item often overlooked is the "chemical stuff" that you store in your basement and garage otherwise known as Household Hazardous Waste (HHW). Often times, Sellers try to leave these items behind and Buyers are not pleased when they conduct a walk through prior to sale and see Household Hazardous Waste items in the basement or garage. On occasion, this can hold up the sale as the seller scrambles to remove the household hazardous waste items.
I wanted to let you know that the Nashua Regional Planning Commission (NRPC) holds Collections during the Spring, Summer and Autumn seasons to allow residents to properly dispose of these products.
Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) come from everyday products used in the home, yard, or garden. They can be corrosive, flammable, toxic, or reactive. Paints and solvents, oven cleaners, pool chemicals, pesticides, drain openers, and auto chemicals are just a few examples.
This coming Saturday, you can get rid of your household hazardous waste (HHW). The first collection day is April 24th, 8am to Noon, at the Nashua Public Works Garage on 6 Riverside Street. The full details are here: http://www.nashuarpc.org/hhw/

Residents (both Owners and Renters) of these towns can participate; Amherst, Brookline, Hollis, Hudson, Litchfield, Merrimack, Milford, Mont Vernon, Nashua, Pelham, Windham. Be sure to read the fineprint before coming to the collection site; http://www.nashuarpc.org/hhw/
I encourage you to take advantage of the collection days. Plan ahead and dispose of any Household Hazardous Waste that you no longer need prior to marketing your home.

Good post. It's that time of year. Didn't see Londonderry on that list.
Hi Ross,
I'm not sure who services Londonderry for hazardous waste disposal. I double checked the Nashua Regional Planning Commission site to make sure I didn't miss Londonderry and it isn't listed as a town they service.
All too often at final walk through's I find basements and garages stacked with these items. Sellers know they're tough to get rid of and hope the buyer falls for the "I thought you might want it" line.
I'm certainly negligent in reminding home owners to plan ahead and dispose of the items properly. Hence, the article!
