Trash, Recycling & Compost
Compost
The compost site is located at W12000 620th Avenue. From the east side city limits (Hwy10), go 1.5 miles east. Turn left (north) on 620th Avenue and go approximately 0.8 miles to the compost driveway on the left (north) side of the road. The compost site is open seasonally. Efforts are made to open early spring and remain open until just before the firearms deer hunting season. Hours vary throughout the season. Give us a call, see our City's calendar, our City's websites homepage or our Facebook page for current hours.

Refuse Containers
Residents may select 1 of 3 options:
- 35 gallon cart
- 65 gallon cart
- 95 gallon cart
Carts are picked up weekly. GFL will only pick up refuse that is placed in the cart. GFL picks up refuse on all holidays except Christmas. If Christmas is on your regularly scheduled pick-up day, GFL will pick up on the next business day.
Recycling Containers
Residents are provided a 65 gallon cart with a yellow top that clearly distinguishes the refuse and recycling containers. All recyclable materials can be commingled in this cart. GFL will not pick up any recycling that is not placed into the cart. Residents can choose to place their containers out weekly or as needed when the container is full. Pierce County recycling has also placed recycling bins in the cul-de-sac behind the Mary T Apartments off of Dexter St. Residents may also drop their recyclable items at these bins.
Here is a link to an image of where the recycling bins are located.
Refuse & Recycling Pick Up Schedule
Refuse and recycling will be picked up either on Wednesday or Thursday. Please see the attached map. All refuse and recycling must be placed at the curb by 6 a.m. on your day of pick-up. The carts must be placed 10 feet apart from each other to allow the equipment GFL uses to pick up each cart.
