1. I have an old refrigerator- where does it go?

You transport your empty refrigerator to the Regional Transfer Station metal pile.  Either the doors must be removed, or it needs to be loaded in a way that allows for quick inspection. The Freon will be removed and the metal will be recycled (fees apply). 

2. I am cleaning out the garage and have lots of old paint. Where does it go?

See the Recyclopedia on the 2good2toss.com website for locations that will take full or almost full cans of paint. If it is not usable, take the oil based paint to the Moderate Risk Waste Facility. The latex paint goes in the garbage- but you must solidify it first with cat litter or sand.

3. I live in Sequim. Can I go to the Regional Transfer Station and do I have to pay more?

The facility is open to all residents and businesses in Clallam County. The disposal rates are the same, no matter where you live. For small bags of garbage, you could use the Blue Mountain Transfer Station which is closer to Sequim.

4. Where does the waste go?

Household recycling and scrap metal is baled and shipped to Tacoma for further processing and then is shipped to markets in this country and worldwide. Hazardous waste is shipped to Seattle area for reuse, recycling, or proper disposal. Yard waste is composted on site and sold as Garden Glory Compost. All other waste is compacted and shipped out by truck daily to Roosevelt Landfill in Eastern Washington.
