DTG Recycle is a neighborhood recycling center in Woodinville where people bring household recyclables and small clean-up loads. Locals drop off things like cardboard, metal, glass and mixed plastics, and many separate yard debris before they come. The site has the kind of recycling-yard layout with an entrance booth, scale and rows of roll-off bins, and it gets busier on weekends.
Pull into the lot and there’s usually a small booth by the entrance to check in and take care of payment. A scale is commonly used so plan for a stop to be weighed; drives often go in and out around that point. After checking in, drive around to the different bays or bins for paper, metal, glass and plastics-yard waste is generally kept separate in Washington. Expect concrete pads, stacked bundles of flattened cardboard and a handful of larger items around the yard; lines lengthen on weekend mornings, especially during spring cleanups.

- Separate yard waste from recyclables at home; Washington counties commonly expect that and it speeds unloading.
- Try for weekday mornings if possible; weekends and spring cleanup season are when the line gets longest.
