Frustrating location as there always seems to be some reason they can’t accept what I’m bringing. This time they won’t accept hydraulic dump

Always a quick in and out in the morning hours. They are restricting entry to king county residents only these days. Don't really know why that is the case

Great easily accessible transfer station with free cardboard, styrofoam and metal dropoff. Highly recommend for all Shoreline residents. They do check ID and address at the gate.
what is the charge for a hot water heater and can I recycle styrofoam?
Cal Folsom | Aug 11, 2022
aubrey worthen | Aug 12, 2022
Yes they take select kinds of styrofoam. And i think its no charge if recycling the water heater. Or at max it would be just the weight of it ($35 or so).
I just cleaned out the garage and raked a bunch of junk out of the vegetation behind the garage. Will the transfer station accept an old rusted barbeque, old glass and some plastic and vinyl auto body parts in addition to trash and yard cuttings?
Mike OHandley | Aug 11, 2022
Mike Martinez | Aug 12, 2022
Yes we will just make sure you separate everything. Metal is free so you can get rid of your metal first then go back to the scale house to re-weigh your load. Separate your vegetation as that is considered yard waste and everything else is regular garbage.

Tracy Yang | Aug 11, 2022

Do couches have to be cut apart?
Chris Mallis | Aug 11, 2022
Devin Hanson | Aug 12, 2022
No, just throw them over. There's a wall that is about 2.5 feet tall that you have to throw all garbage over (there are slots at the ground for debri).
There's also a chain that is a bit above the wall. (So you don't fall in) You just have to slide and maneuver the couch so it doesn't get too caught on the chain. (I think the chains also there so you don't lob it over long ways and make a huge thud or hurt yourself.)
Do you recycle ♻️ mattress bags?
Mary X | Aug 11, 2022
Jay Bob | Aug 12, 2022
I didn't see anything for recycling plastic bags of any type there.

I am not sure about either of those. I know that they accept scrape metals such as lawnmowers, microwave, bbq grill and other small appliance with cord. Although these items seem like small appliance, you should call them and ask.

You can drop everything at shoreline its just garbage but for concrete that stuff is heavy if you have alot of it go to Pacific top soil because they go by yards and we go by weight. If not alot then take it to shoreline
