In light of the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on the current budget, the City of Dunwoody will not be able to host a household hazardous waste recycling event or electronics recycling event in 2020. Please know that we remain committed to bringing them back in the future when the budget picture improves.
