Commercial Recycling
At this time, the City does not have a commercial recycling program. Waste Control Recycling provides office paper and cardboard recycling to commercial businesses. If you are interested in establishing a recycling program at your business for either of these items, please contact Waste Control Recycling by phone at phone 360-425-4302 or email Solid Waste & Recycling. They will coordinate the setup and billing for the recycling service that fits your needs.
