These items cannot <br />be disposed of in the trash, dumpster, sinks, toilets, or down the drain. They must be disposed of using Rite Aid’s <br />Hazardous Waste Program. <br />• Every associate is responsible for following Rite Aid’s Hazardous Waste Returns Policy and the Hazardous Materials <br />Policy, which can be found on the store portal. <br />Hazardous waste can never be returned to any distribution center. <br />
