Recycling centers in Shoreline

The Recology Store on Aurora Ave N is a year-round drop-off for hard-to-recycle items, including alkaline batteries, light bulbs, styrofoam and small propane cylinders. The Shoreline battery list limits drop-offs at this store to a quarter gallon.

The Shoreline Recycling Transfer Station offers recycling services and garbage disposal for customers within King County's service area, excluding Seattle and Milton. Accepted materials include doors, windows, lighting, lumber, cabinets, tools, and furniture in good reusable condition. Vehicles and trailers have length limits ranging from 25 to 40 feet depending on the station. Payment methods include credit cards, cash, and Apple Pay. Visitors must secure their load to avoid a $25 fee for arriving with an unsecured load. Second Use may accept select reusable materials outside the Shoreline station. Fees vary based on material and weight, with potential discounts for ProviderOne, EBT, or ORCA LIFT customers. The facility consolidates garbage for transport to Cedar Hills Regional Landfill, while yard waste and recyclables are distributed to markets for processing. For more information, visitors can contact Second Use or the solid waste information line, and view downloadable guides for recycling services at King County facilities.
