At the event we accept only tree stumps, tree branches, firewood and
logs that are 4" or larger in diameter. We WILL NOT ACCEPT regular
yard debris, defined as: small branches (less than 4" in diameter),
grass clippings, leaves or sod. We will DENY ENTRY to any vehicle
bringing regular yard debris (or even a load mixed with regular yard
debris). Any small branches (less than 4") must be sawed off from
big ones (4" or larger) and only the latter can be brought to the
event. This rule will be strictly enforced to avoid material
contamination. The wood collected at the event is recycled. Requiring an
entirely different process, even a small
amount of regular yard debris will contaminate a load of bulky wood and make it
non-recyclable. The City must then pay a higher fee to dispose of
the contaminated load as garbage.
Please prepare your wood waste
accordingly and bring only those items accepted at the event. We
appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
Regular yard debris except sod is collected weekly
between March and November, and bi-weekly between December & February
through the City's curbside recycling program. If you have more than can fit into your black yard debris toter, and you
do not wish to pay the extra curbside collection fee, you can take your
yard debris to one of the local private composting facilities, which
will charge you as well.
For more information, please call the King County InfoLine at
206-296-6540 or the Redmond Recycling office at
425-556-2811.

Vehicles not in compliance with event requirements and restrictions will

unacceptable items have been removed.
