SafeDispose is an Orange County disposal guide that helps users find safe, specific disposal instructions backed by sources and plan where to take a variety of unwanted items. Users can search or browse for items, save them to a list, and see drop-off locations that accept the items they need to dispose of.
I redesigned and cleaned up the overall UI, including buttons, search results, safety notes, and disposal location cards and gave it a much cleaner look. I also updated the homepage by adding a How it works section, About section, and a footer.
I finished adding disposal information for the remaining categories, including Medicine & Needles, Automotive, Appliances, and Furniture & Bulky Items. I also went through and reviewed all the disposal information for every category for consistency and to fix any typos or grammatical errors.
Cleaned up inconsistencies for disposal information across several items and categories. I fixed up inconsistent wording for hazardous waste locations, safety instructions, and corrected a few disposal details to keep consistency across similar items.
SafeDispose is an Orange County disposal guide I’ve been building to help people easily figure out how to safely dispose of their everyday items. So far, I’ve added multiple categories and sub-categories of items, a search feature, specific disposal instructions backed by sources for each item, a disposal list you can save items to, and a system that matches saved items to Orange County household hazardous waste drop-off locations. I also added Google Maps directions links for the hazardous waste center locations and official source links.
