Oh, I should have posted this sooner, but my city has a hazardous waste disposal day once per summer (where you can bring cans of paint, cleaners, batteries... stuff like that).

It's a well attended service, and an anti-idler's nightmare, as it's structured as a drive-through event.

This year they specifically forbade people from riding their bicycles to drop things off. Safety and all, you know.

But it's good they're helping the environment and getting that message out there.
