CEP Recycle is a local recycling center in Walla Walla where residents and small haulers drop off common recyclables. People who bring sorting already done tend to move through faster. It's the sort of place used during spring cleanouts and regular recycling runs.
The site is on W Rose St and looks like a working yard with piles, containers, and a small entrance booth where vehicles pull up. Like many recycling centers in Washington, expect to see bins or bays for paper, cardboard, metal, glass and various plastics, and separate areas for yard materials. Vehicles often line up on busy days, so there can be short waits, especially on weekends and during seasonal cleanups. It helps to have items separated by type before getting to the drop-off point.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Sort paper, cardboard, cans, glass and plastics at home so unloading is quicker and less chaotic at the site.
- Bring a tarp or straps for loose materials; windy days can make loose paper and lightweight recyclables a hassle.
- Avoid peak times like weekend mornings if possible - midweek or late afternoons usually move faster.
