Bulk items in Washington County are handled through franchise hauler on-call pickup or direct drop-off at Metro transfer stations — Metro South (Oregon City) and Metro Central (NW Portland) — plus the Hillsboro Landfill. Refrigerants, electronics, and HHW have separate rules.
Washington County franchise haulers (Republic, Pride Disposal, Waste Management, Hillsboro Garbage) offer on-call bulk item pickup for furniture, mattresses, and non-refrigerant appliances, typically billed per item ($15-$50). Refrigerators, freezers, window AC units, and dehumidifiers require certified refrigerant recovery per EPA Section 608 and carry higher fees. Electronics are prohibited from curbside and must go to Oregon E-Cycles sites (free for TVs, monitors, computers under Oregon's ORS 459A.305-365 producer-responsibility program). Household hazardous waste (paint, solvents, batteries, motor oil, pesticides) goes to Metro Central Transfer Station (6161 NW 61st Ave, Portland), Metro South (Oregon City), or periodic neighborhood HHW events. Construction debris requires separate disposal at Hillsboro Landfill or a transfer station — not franchise bulk. Illegal dumping on county roads, creek banks, or rural lots (common issues along Cornelius Pass Rd and Scholls Ferry) triggers Sheriff investigation under ORS 459.205. Metro's PaintCare program accepts latex/oil paint at participating retailers.
Illegal dumping: Class A misdemeanor under ORS 459.205, up to $6,250 fine and/or jail; civil cleanup costs added. Setting items out unscheduled: $50-$200. Improper appliance disposal (refrigerant): EPA civil penalties.
