Recycling in Hillsboro, Oregon

Pride Disposal is one of the haulers that lists Hillsboro among its service areas. Pride puts glass bottles and jars in a separate red bin, not the cart, and collects household batteries in that bin too. Far West Recycling runs a public depot seven days a week at 6440 SE Alexander Street, and hazardous waste goes to Metro's sites in Portland and Oregon City.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Hillsboro curbside recycling take glass in the cart?

No. Pride Disposal, which serves Hillsboro, collects glass bottles and jars in a separate red bin. Rinse them and remove the lids. Light bulbs, drinking glasses, vases, broken glass, ceramics, and dishes stay out of the bin.

Can I put batteries out at the curb in Hillsboro?

Yes, with Pride Disposal. Household, lithium, and button-cell batteries go in a single 1-quart zip-sealed bag collected with the glass. Car batteries, lead-acid batteries, and UPS units are refused. Those go to a car battery recycler instead.

The public depot at 6440 SE Alexander Street is open 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, 7 days a week. The metal buy back and electronics counter runs 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM Monday to Friday and 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM on Saturday. Walk-in and bicycle traffic is not allowed across the scales and yards.

Where do I take household hazardous waste from Hillsboro?

Metro runs two permanent household hazardous waste sites, Metro Central at 6161 NW 61st Ave in Portland (Monday to Saturday, 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM) and Metro South at 2001 Washington St in Oregon City (daily, 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM). Disposal is free for households, with a 35-gallon daily limit. Paint, pesticides, cleaners, solvents, and fluorescent bulbs are accepted.

Can I recycle used motor oil at the curb in Hillsboro?

Yes, with Pride Disposal. Put it in a 1-gallon clear plastic bottle with a screw-on lid, kept apart from other liquids, up to 3 gallons per service day. It is collected with the glass. Antifreeze, cooking oil, and hydraulic fluid are not accepted.

What plastics go in the Hillsboro recycling cart?

Pride Disposal takes plastic bottles, milk jugs, tubs, rigid plant pots, and 5-gallon buckets, each at least 2 inches by 2 inches. Clamshells, film, styrofoam, plastic cups, and lids are refused. Screw-on lids can stay on and snap-on lids go in the garbage.
