Calling all household cleaning supplies, paint removers, and garden chemicals!

Rogue Disposal & Recycling’s annual Household Hazardous Waste Drop-Off Day will be held Saturday, May 2nd, 2026.

This is your chance to safely dispose of your household toxins and keep them out of our water sources; everything from drain cleaner and weed killer, to bleach, household batteries, and bug spray. Preventing pollutants from going into our waterways—such as down the sink drain or through storm drains, which flow into streams—saves on water treatment costs and makes the water more hospitable for the fish, wildlife, plants, and humans that depend on it.

As #FixALeak Week comes to a close, remember that you can still check for leaks all year long! When it’s time to start up your sprinkler system, check for broken sprinklers or nozzles spraying in the wrong direction, and check the zones and run times.

You may want to consult an irrigation professional or contact our Water Efficiency Team for a FREE sprinkler survey. Stay tuned for more tips before the watering season begins! #FixALeak

Another simple step you can take outside is to check your water meter. Turn off all water-using appliances/fixtures (including automatic ice makers) before leaving the house for an hour or two. Write down the numbers from your meter and do the same as soon as you return. If the numbers are different, you likely have a leak.

Bonus Tip: If your water meter has a red leak indicator dial, you can use it to check as well! If it is turning while all water is off, you likely have a leak. #FixALeak

Water meters are located in concrete boxes in the ground usually at the property line in front of or behind your home. It’s a good idea to locate yours and acquaint yourself with turning your water supply off/on before a water emergency occurs. medfordwater.org/yourmeter
