Recycling in Renton, Washington

Renton partners with Republic Services. The green garbage cart and the blue recycling cart are collected every other week. The gray organics cart, for food and yard waste, is collected every week. Every house gets one recycling cart and one organics cart. The garbage cart is the one you subscribe to, and you are billed for that level even if a cart is skipped. All three carts are out by 7 a.m. and back within 24 hours. Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day delay the rest of that week by one day, including a route that lands on Saturday. Washington has no bottle deposit.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do Renton carts have to be placed?

By 7 a.m., handle toward the house, as close to the curb as possible and no farther than 5 feet out. Leave 2 feet between carts and at least 3 feet from cars, bushes, and mailboxes. Keep 14 feet of open air above the cart. Do not block a sidewalk or a roadway. Pull them back within 24 hours. A contaminated recycling or organics cart is collected and billed as extra garbage.

What does a Renton account change cost?

The first change in a calendar year is free. Each change after that is a $35 administrative fee. A weather skip is not credited. One free extra garbage collection a year is available through Clean Sweep. Carry-out is free when nobody in the home can move the carts, and it is a fee for everyone else. A household that is at least 61, or disabled, and meets the income test can get 50 percent off the rate.

Where do Renton batteries and extra yard waste go?

Batteries and fluorescent tubes are a scheduled pickup, not a cart item. Call (206) 777-6440. Extra yard waste can sit in a paper lawn bag, a box, or a can labeled yard waste, up to 60 pounds. Untreated branches can be bundled with natural twine, no bigger than 4 feet by 2 feet. Food scraps do not go in those extra containers. A free kitchen pail is at the Republic office, 212 Wells Avenue South, Suite 104.
