Unlike cities such as Seattle that run municipal garbage service, unincorporated King County uses private certificated haulers regulated by the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (WUTC) under RCW 81.77. The two main haulers serving unincorporated King County are Republic Services (most of the county) and Recology CleanScapes (portions). Residents must subscribe to garbage service and may choose their can size (typically 20, 32, 64, or 96 gallons). Rates are set through WUTC filings. Weekly garbage pickup is standard, with recycling collection every other week in most service areas. Yard waste (organics) pickup is offered as an optional service. Multifamily and commercial properties are required to have adequate garbage service. Place carts at the curb by the scheduled pickup time (generally 7 a.m.) and remove them within 24 hours after collection. Holidays may shift pickup by one day. Under King County Code 10.04 and the Solid Waste Management Plan, waste must be disposed at an approved facility. Self-haul to one of the eight King County Solid Waste transfer stations is an alternative; fees apply per ton or minimum load. Illegal dumping is prohibited and can be reported to (206) 477-4466.
Failing to maintain garbage service or dumping illegally are violations of KCC 10.04 and state law. Illegal dumping is a gross misdemeanor under RCW 70A.200.060 with fines up to 5,000 dollars. Setting out non-allowed items at curbside can result in refusal to collect and tag fees.
