Where To Take Your Garbage And Recycling

Responsible disposal of all wastes is important. Keeping garbage out of Clackamas County Forestlands will insure protection of our natural resources and access to public and private forestlands.

Tires can be disposed of for as little as a few dollars for recycling. The cost to our environment is a great deal more. Often tires are burnt in campfires in the forestlands. When burnt a standard passenger tire can generate about two gallons of oil, which is left to contaminate the soil and water. Tires also provide a source of water to spawn mosquitoes.

There are many resources and locations to dispose of solid waste and recycling.
