Household BOPAE
What is BOPAE?
What is BOPAE? We’re glad you asked. BOPAE stands for Batteries, Oil, Paint, Antifreeze, and Electronics. County and city convenience centers across Tennessee collect these items for responsible recycling and/or disposal. Some private businesses and organizations also provide collection centers for residents of these sometimes hard-to-dispose-of items. BOPAE items can be dangerous to human health and the environment if improperly managed or disposed. By taking these materials to responsible collection facilities, you’re helping protect the environment for the future of Tennessee.
