Imperial County Public Works identifies IVRMA’s regional HHW program. IVRMA says its three facilities serve Imperial County residents and requires ID plus a utility bill. This County information guide does not become the operator; its calendar and current operating dates require confirmation.
Service area: Household/material-specific programme or referral only. Residency, customer eligibility, materials and receiving-site availability must be checked with the named programme; this is not unrestricted all-county disposal access. [3]
