Ridgefield — Ridgefield and Green Neighbors, a Clark County Department of Environmental Services program, will host a Green Neighbors Recycling Day Event 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. today at the 5900 block of South 11th Street, west of Parr Lumber and South Timm Road.

Residents can bring block foam, electronic equipment, tires without rims, refrigerators, freezers, air conditioning units and scrap metal to be recycled. There is a limit of five tires per person. No business waste or household hazardous waste will be accepted. Household hazardous waste includes paints, pesticides, poisons, automotive fluids and chemicals.

Household garbage is allowed at the collection. The garbage must be contained properly, and residents must be able to remove the garbage from their vehicle themselves.

Residents are also asked to bring nonperishable food donations for the Clark County Food Bank.

A car wash will raise money to support Ridgefield High School student activities.

Recycling Day events are free and open to all Clark County residents. Proof of residency, such as a driver’s license or other identification with an address, might be required.

There will be collection events taking place later this year in Ridgefield, La Center, Washougal and Vancouver. For more information, go to www.clarkgreenneighbors.org/recyclingday.html.
