Are you looking for recycling locations? Washington state is known for its robust recycling efforts, ranking 15th in the nation for recycling rates. However, the state's recycling rate has been relatively stagnant at just under 50% in recent years. Despite this, Washington continues to push for improvement through legislation aimed at increasing the use of recycled materials and enhancing recycling infrastructure. Initiatives like the Washington Recycling and Packaging Act (WRAP) are part of ongoing efforts to boost the state's recycling performance and quality assurance to address challenges in the recycling programs (570 KVI) (The Recycling Partnership).

Call2Recycle is deeply committed to safety as its top priority. If you have inflated, damaged, defective, or recalled (DDR) batteries, including lithium-ion types, please do not bring them to a participating collection site. These batteries require special handling and cannot be placed in regular Call2Recycle collection boxes. Instead, visit our store to purchase a compliant DDR shipping container to ensure proper and safe disposal.
