I won't be surprised if they expect us to let them come in to our homes to take it.

I tried getting rid of old primers a few years ago and was told by the hazardous dump that only police can take it. When I called the non emergency line they wanted to send officers to my house to come in and gather them. I told them no, I will dispose of them at the range instead.

Like fuck I'm letting a cop into my house without a warrant.

When I called my local police, they also said they only allow for police to come to your home…. Not a great process.
