Saturday is last chance this year for yard waste and scrap metal dropoff in Olympia

Olympia’s Saturday Drop-off Site at 1000 10th Ave. SE is closing for the season.

If you have fall leaves, yard debris, scrap metal, or additional recycling to dispose of, bring them to the site between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 18. The site will then close until March 2.

Glass and cardboard recycling will remain available 24/7 at the site.

There is no fee for recycling or scrap metal disposal. The cost for yard and wood waste varies, depending on volume and the type of material. Customers are required to unload their own vehicles, so bring only what you can physically handle.

When the city drop-off site is closed, you can take yard debris to the Thurston County Waste & Recovery Center in Lacey. Visit olympiawa.gov/satdropoff for more information.
