We partner with trusted community organizations across Seattle to share resources where they matter most.

We show up where people are, and being in community is at the core of our work. We’re always working to reach those who need information the most and have the least access to it.

Recently, we welcomed City of Seattle Government Council President Joy Hollingsworth to the South Transfer Station to meet staff and learn more about our solid waste operations and the work we do every day to serve our communities.

We are proud of the crews and teams who help keep Seattle running, and we appreciated the opportunity to share their work and impact.

Our Adopt a Street program supports Seattle neighborhoods with consistent proactive litter abatement routes and by providing resources to communities for cleanup events – such as yellow trash bags, gloves, debris grabbers, and safety vests for visibility.

Tomorrow, Adopt a Street is partnering with the Chinatown-International District Business Improvement Area on its 25th Annual Chinatown-International District Spring Clean event.

Your utility bill includes water, sewer, and solid waste services.

Extra garbage charges—when they occur it will appear on page 3. We encourage everyone to review this page each billing cycle.

Before placing out extra garbage, see if it can be recycled, composted, or scheduled through Special Item Pickup.

If you’re ever unsure about a charge, just give us a call at 206-684-3000.

We’re here to help!
