||| FROM PETE MOE for ORCAS RECYCLING/THE EXCHANGE |||
Time to clean out under the sink and in the garage: ORS/The Exchange will host a Household Hazardous Waste collection event at the Orcas Transfer Station on Saturday March 23rd, from 10 am to 2 pm. The event is free to all Orcas households (businesses need to contact us directly).
This is a mid-year event, and therefore we cannot accept liquid fuels (hold on to those until June 1, when we have our annual summer clean up event).
As always oil-based and latex paint will NOT be accepted at this event. Paints and stains are recyclable, and ORS accepts them every day, year-round, for free.
You can learn all about what we will accept at the cleanup and all about our paint recycling program on our website, at www.exchangeorcas.org.
