Lynnwood Recycling Center

Small, practical recycling center off Highway 99 in Lynnwood that locals use to drop off household recyclables and garden debris. Cars and small trailers are common here; contractors rarely swing through with big loads. The place is handy for anyone trying to keep stuff out of the landfill without driving across town.

Pull in from 161st/Highway 99 and you'll see a simple entrance with a small booth and a few large roll-off containers and bins. There’s usually a line at the booth on busy days, so be prepared to wait a bit during weekend cleanups. People tend to pull up, sort into the obvious containers - cardboard, mixed cans and bottles, yard trimmings - and then head back to the booth before leaving. The site looks like a working yard: concrete pads, big bins, and signs over the containers that help point where stuff goes.
