Very well run, good signage to tell you where to go. If you have junk to get rid of, this is the way to do it. $28 minimum fee for dropping garbage though, and it goes up depending on weight of what you do off. But it's still cheap, all things considered.

It was slow going, and not very clear as to where regular trash was to be deposited ... Also chaotic with people who do not know how to back up their vehicle. They stopped the line into the facility for some reason and had everyone wait for a good 10-15 minutes ... Maybe they were on their break ... Glad I went and checked this off my list.

They have places to separate your trash from recyclables here which is great to see a way to help things get properly disposed of and reused if possible. The facility is actually fairly clean seeming and well maintained. The day I was there I did not notice a horrible stench but it was also a cool day outside so not sure what it's like on hot sunny summer days.

This is the closest transfer station to my house that excepts appliances. You can recycle washer's and dryers and water heaters among other things at no charge. I live in Renton but Renton does not recycle appliances.
