Packing Flammables for Moving In Houston

Information on how to pack flammables for shipping.

You'll need: 

To call your local recycling pick-up provider, fire station, or the nearest Environmental Protection Agency office to learn how to properly dispose of flammable and hazardous materials before you move, such as paints, solvents, oil, and gas from your grill.

How to pack:

DON'T!!!
It's dangerous and illegal to pack and move flammable and hazardous materials. If you have a small can of turpentine or leftover paint, ask your neighbors if they can use it. Otherwise, dispose of it properly with assistance from your recycling company or the EPA.

TIP: Many towns have an annual "Hazardous Materials Disposal Drop-Off Day" at a recycling center or fire station. If you know you're moving, plan ahead to dispose of materials then.
