Prepare for Busy Times
Expect longer than normal wait times. Holiday weekends are among the busiest times at our facilities. The heaviest traffic is typically between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Our scrap metal hauler's holiday schedule may cause unexpected closure of the scrap metal containers at Olympic View Transfer Station and Silverdale Recycling and Garbage Facility in the days before or after a holiday.
If the containers are full and closed when you arrive, do not leave your scrap metal on the ground. Pay for disposal, wait until another day, or take it to a private scrap metal recycler instead.
Beware of Fire Hazards
Our waste facility staff screens incoming loads for fire hazards. Soak all used fireworks and "duds" in water for at least 15 minutes before disposal.
Follow these disposal instructions to safely get rid of BBQ charcoal, briquettes, ashes, and other fire-causing materials.
