- 1). Pour Clorox bleach down the toilet. If you have less than five gallons of Clorox bleach to dispose of and your home is connected to a municipal sewer, pour the bleach into the toilet and flush away.
- 2). Open the tap, and pour the bleach down the sink. You can dispose of small amounts of bleach in the sink as long as the bleach is diluted by the running water. The bleach is broken down into its main ingredients---salt and water--with the help of the running water.
- 3). Give the Clorox bleach away. Consider giving the bleach to someone else if you have bottles that you can't use. The uses of chlorine bleach are vast, and someone else might make good use of it.
- 4). Contact a household waste disposal company. If you have large amounts of bleach to dispose of, call one of these companies to help. Hazardous waste disposal companies will pick up the bleach, or you can take it to them, usually for a fee.
- 5). Try to think of alternative ways to utilize bleach around your home. You do not necessarily have to discard leftover bleach. Clorox has many uses---some of which many people are not familiar with. Add bleach to your flower vase, for example. Mix a quarter tsp. of bleach with a qt. of water, and keep your cut flowers fresher longer. You can also use bleach to kill weeds.
