Washington County solid waste service is franchised by the county Department of Health & Human Services Solid Waste & Recycling program, with weekly garbage and every-other-week recycling. Haulers include Republic Services, Pride Disposal, Waste Management, and Hillsboro Garbage Disposal, by service territory.
Washington County regulates solid waste collection through franchise agreements under the authority of ORS Chapter 459 and county ordinance. The county Solid Waste & Recycling program assigns exclusive franchise territories to haulers: Republic Services serves most of Beaverton, Aloha, and Cedar Mill; Pride Disposal covers Sherwood, Tualatin, and parts of Tigard; Waste Management handles parts of Hillsboro and Forest Grove; Hillsboro Garbage Disposal serves downtown Hillsboro. Standard residential service is weekly garbage, every-other-week recycling (paper/cardboard/metal/plastic), and every-other-week glass (separate bin) alternating with yard debris. Yard debris collection runs year-round. Carts must be curbside by 6 AM on service day. Cities inside the county are covered by the same franchise system; rates are set by the Board of County Commissioners. Metro regional oversight influences recycling content rules through Metro Code Chapter 5.01. Holiday delay: pickup shifts one day when a holiday falls on or before your service day. Missed-pickup reports go directly to your hauler within 24 hours.
Unlicensed hauling: violation of franchise ordinance, $250-$2,500. Missed-setout: no penalty but missed service. Overfilled/overweight carts: refused pickup plus overage fees per hauler schedule.
