               (No vehicles admitted after 4:00 pm)

LOCATION:  18120 NE 76th Street (City of Redmond Maintenance Operation Center)

SPECIAL CURBSIDE PICK-UP!!

Between July 7th and August 1st, single-family residents who subscribe to recycling service and live within Redmond City limits may place electronic units for curbside pickup WITHOUT having to call Waste Management in advance.  All units marked with "*" under Station 1 (except for TV sets 22" or larger) may be set out at the curb two-feet away from your blue recycling bin on your usual garbage pickup day ONLY between July 7th and August 1st. You still have to call Waste Management at 425-814-1695 to schedule a free pickup of these units for all other dates.

Please NOTE!!

Vehicles not in compliance with event requirements and restrictions will be denied entry.  Vehicles may return only after the unacceptable items have been removed.

There is also a new law requiring drivers to secure their loads when using public streets.  When coming to the event, any participants not complying with the law can be fined accordingly. 

This event is for households only.  No commercial customers are allowed.  The event is designed to help you reuse or recycle as many materials as possible that are currently not included in our curbside recycling programs.  It's all FREE except for refrigeration units, TV sets, computers, monitors, copiers and stereos. Please click on the headings listed above to verify what you can bring and what is restricted.

All participants must strictly follow the event route: (1) get onto 180th Ave NE (2) turn left or right (depending on which direction you're driving) onto NE 68th St (3) turn left onto 185th Ave NE and, (4) turn left onto 76th St.  Please be patient and flexible at the site.  As you drive through the event lot, the drop-off stations are set up in numbered order as listed by each material.  To quickly and easily unload at each station, please pack your items for the stations in descending order - last item placed in your vehicle will be the first item out!  A tip:  the higher the station number for a material, the earlier that material should be loaded into your vehicle.
