(360) 384-8011Recycling & Disposal Services Inc is a local recycling center in Ferndale used by residents and small haulers looking to keep materials out of the landfill. Neighbors drop off everything from household recyclables to bulky items and seasonal yard debris. The facility fits into Washington’s emphasis on separating recyclables and yard waste set by the Department of Ecology.
Drive in with materials fairly well sorted; many centers in the state ask that yard waste and mixed recyclables be kept separate. Look for a staffed entrance booth or drop-off lanes where vehicles pause briefly to be directed - expect concrete pads, open bays, and rows of containers. Commonly accepted items at centers like this include paper and cardboard, glass, metals, some plastics, electronics and appliances, plus yard debris and wood; specialty programs for electronics or scrap metal are often available. Weekends and spring cleanup times usually get busy, so there can be a line of trucks and trailers waiting to unload.
