**Jefferson County Public Works** manages the county-wide solid waste program, offering disposal options at the Transfer Station outside of Port Townsend and the Drop Box in Quilcene. They accept a wide range of materials, from regular household garbage to construction debris, used oil, antifreeze, and even creosote pilings. However, starting December 1, 2024, glass will no longer be recycled in Jefferson County, and glass recycle bins will be removed, with glass accepted as trash. Residents can dispose of household hazardous waste at the Kitsap County Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility, providing an alternative for those awaiting the next HHW Collection Event. The Solid Waste Facility Replacement Planning Project seeks public input, with opportunities to share opinions and follow the work of the Solid Waste Facilities Task Force. The program is funded by tipping fees, with service levels balanced to maintain current fees. Visitors can access more information on the Hazardous Waste page, Recycling page, and Household Hazardous Waste page for details on services, materials accepted, and upcoming events.
