Yard waste rules in Seattle

Seattle’s food and yard waste cart takes most garden trimmings, and larger loads can be self-hauled to the North or South Transfer Station for a fee. Hills, rain and steep backyards make hauling heavy yard debris a two-person job.

How it works with Seattle Public Utilities (SPU)

Seattle Public Utilities offers special item collections for large furniture, appliances, TVs and other hard-to-dispose-of items. The utility account holder books online or by phone, and each item carries a fee on the utility bill, with higher charges for appliances containing refrigerant.

For a few bags, city collection works well. For a tree’s worth of branches, a torn-down shed or a full yard cleanup in Seattle, a crew clears it in one visit instead of waiting for a scheduled special item collection.

Recycling, donation and local tips in Seattle

Self-haulers can use the city’s North Transfer Station (1350 N 34th St) or South Transfer Station (130 S Kenyon St), where fees apply, and building-material reuse stores accept salvageable materials.

Green waste goes to composting facilities where they’re available, and wood, metal and plastic from sheds, fences and playsets are separated for recycling.

How yard waste removal pricing works in Seattle

Every yard waste removal job in Seattle is quoted individually, and the price is agreed before anything is loaded. It depends on:

  • Truck space used
  • Weight of the materials
  • Stairs, elevators and carrying distance
  • Mattresses, appliances and electronics
  • Disposal and recycling fees

Compared with paid, per-item special collections through Seattle Public Utilities (SPU), a quote from us covers whatever amount you have, with the labor, the driving and the disposal in one figure.
