Recycling in Vancouver, Washington

Vancouver sits on the Columbia River with views toward Mount Hood and a mix of historic neighborhoods and fast-growing suburbs. Residential recycling uses a blue mixed-recycling cart plus a separate glass-only bin, a local sorting detail that newcomers can easily miss. Transfer facilities, Clark County hazardous-waste sites, and Washington's E-Cycle program cover materials that do not belong at the curb.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is residential recycling sorted in Vancouver?

Vancouver households use a blue cart for accepted mixed recyclables and a separate bin for accepted glass bottles and jars. Glass should not be mixed into the blue cart, and the glass bin should not contain ceramics, mirrors, windows, or drinkware.

Where can Vancouver residents take extra or special waste?

Area transfer facilities provide disposal and recycling options for materials that do not fit regular residential collection. Check the facility's current acceptance guidance before hauling a load because fees and material rules can differ.

How do I dispose of household hazardous waste in Vancouver?

Clark County provides household hazardous waste collection at designated facilities. Take accepted paint, chemicals, automotive fluids, and similar products there rather than putting them in a curbside cart or pouring them down a drain.

Where can I recycle electronics in Vancouver?

Washington's E-Cycle program provides approved collection sites for covered electronics such as televisions, computers, monitors, and eligible portable computers. Use the state locator to choose a participating site and confirm acceptance before visiting.

Is bulky-item pickup available to Vancouver residential customers?

Residential garbage customers receive an annual bulky-item pickup benefit under the local program. Arrange the pickup in advance and confirm which items qualify rather than placing furniture or appliances at the curb without scheduling.
