Recycling and Disposal Station Rates
Rates for clean yard waste and clean wood waste are lower than rates for garbage. In order to get the lower rates, separate materials before arriving at the station.
When you arrive at the station tell the scale attendant what you are dumping, and be prepared to have your load inspected.
