Clark County – Clark County residents doing some spring cleaning can drop off a variety of recyclable items at free county-sponsored events that will be held in April and May.
At the seven upcoming Green Neighbors Recycling Day events, county residents can drop off block foam, electronic equipment, refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, scrap metal, as well tires (but no more than five tires without rims per person) without charge. Staff at the events (except for those held in Yacolt and Ridgefield) will provide shredding for up to two file-sized boxes of paper.
