How to Set Out Recycling


Cart Collection Guidelines
  • • Set your cart out by 7:00 a.m. on your collection day.

  • • Place the cart(s) within 3 feet of the curb.

  • • Turn the cart so the lid faces the street (see the imprinted arrow).

  • • If you don’t know when your collection day is, look it up online (single-family homes only) or call (206) 684-3000.
Additional recyclables
There is no charge for setting out additional recyclables that do not fit in your cart.
