Tacoma Public Utility residential solid waste customers, who own or rent a single-family home or duplex in the NSHD, are invited to dispose of items that don’t fit in the garbage or recycle bins. Bring electronics, lawn equipment (empty fluids first), tires, carpet, furniture, exercise equipment, metals, barbecues (no ashes or propane tanks), strollers, etc. Shredder for documents will also be provided.
DO NOT BRING materials from a business, apartment building or construction site; vehicles of any kind, truck canopies, boats, trailers, riding mowers; animal carcasses; hazardous materials; liquids; dirt, sod, etc. or regular household garbage.
To volunteer, or request help transporting items, contact Geoff Corso at (206) 334-5202.
Our helpers cannot pick up oversized or heavy items without help. Please use Call-2-Haul for things too heavy or cumbersome for two men to load. Call (253) 573-2468, for a pick-up or for information.
