Ammunition must be disposed of properly to ensure public and environmental safety. Improper disposal can result in lead contamination of soil, water supplies, and air.
Here are a few tips on how to safely dispose of old ammo:
- Contact your local law enforcement or fire department to find out where to take ammunition for disposal. Many police stations have special drop-off bins for hazardous materials.
- In some cases, you may be able to mail your ammunition directly to a disposal facility. Make sure you contact the facility ahead of time to inquire about their mailing policies and procedures.
- Never attempt to dispose of ammunition yourself! This could pose a serious safety hazard.
