Weather Delays (Wind, Flood, Snow, etc.)
If weather prevents safe collection, we announce delays on radio and TV and on our

If residential garbage, recycling or yard waste is not collected due to weather, please remove containers from the street. A double load will be accepted with no extra charge on the next regularly scheduled collection day for each container not emptied unless otherwise posted here.

Where Do Recyclables Go?
Combined bottles, cans, paper and cardboard collected from residences and businesses, as well as debris from construction and demolition projects are sorted at Waste Management's Cascade Recycling Center in Woodinville, the largest recycling facility of its kind on the West Coast. The center employs the most advanced sorting technologies from the US and Europe, and ships the sorted commodities to both domestic and Asian markets for use in new products.
