Bullets, paint from the 60’s, vials of mercury from your old thermometer, anything you’re waiting to take to the hazardous waste day that is usually held for 2 hours during working hours once a year as published on the bulletin board at the fire station.

In the basement, behind a sign saying "Beware of leopard."

I keep all that on a shelf in the garage next to my lawn darts set.

I had a broken thermometer safely stored in Tupperware and (super safely!) wrapped in a bread bag in my garage for three years.

Every so often I’d google how to dispose of it. I called places on lists and they had no idea what I was talking about.

Eventually I just threw it away. I decided it was safer than forgetting about it and someone accidentally exposing themselves.
