City collection Furniture goes to a county transfer station as garbage, or on a pickup arranged with the hauler for the address. The county exempts household sofas from its six foot and 25 square foot size rule at the North County station in Arlington and the drop boxes, and publishes the size rule without that exemption for the Mountlake Terrace station, so confirm a sofa at the scale house there. The city's electronics event refuses furniture outright. From $30 for the flat minimum garbage fee per vehicle carrying 360 pounds or less at a Snohomish County recycling and transfer station, including tax, with heavier loads billed at $160 per ton plus tax. Household loads at the Mountlake Terrace station or the county's other transfer stations; a hauler pickup for the same piece is quoted by the provider for the address.
City collection A mattress goes to a Snohomish County transfer station or on a pickup arranged with the certificated hauler for the address. The county exempts mattresses from its six foot and 25 square foot size rule at the North County station in Arlington and the drop boxes, and publishes the size rule without that exemption for the Mountlake Terrace station, so confirm a mattress at the scale house there. From $30 for the flat minimum garbage fee per vehicle carrying 360 pounds or less at a Snohomish County recycling and transfer station, including tax, with heavier loads billed at $160 per ton plus tax. Household loads at the Mountlake Terrace station. The county's six foot and 25 square foot size exception that names mattresses is published for the North County station and the drop boxes rather than for this one, so confirm an oversized mattress at the scale house.
City collection Cooling appliances are refused everywhere published: the county prohibits refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers and heat pumps at all of its facilities, and the city's electronics event refuses large appliances and air conditioning units as well. No county facility accepts a refrigerator, freezer, air conditioner, dehumidifier or heat pump, and neither the city nor the haulers publish a collection price, so call the county Solid Waste Division on 425-388-3425 for current handling options and ask the hauler for the address for a quote.
City collection Lynnwood publishes no bulky pickup program, so a couch, a mattress or another large item is either arranged with the certificated hauler for the address or driven to a Snohomish County transfer station. The county excepts household sofas, appliances, mattresses, doors, carpets and rugs from its six foot and 25 square foot size rule at the North County station in Arlington and the drop boxes, and it publishes the size rule without that exception for the Mountlake Terrace station, so confirm a large piece at the scale house. There is no published bulky price, because the city runs no bulky program and the haulers set their own service charges, while the county transfer station bills such a load as garbage with a flat minimum under 360 pounds or a per ton rate above it, so ask the provider for a quote or expect the county garbage charge.
The highest first-item price applies once. Every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Applicable sales tax is shown before payment.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Lynnwood requires every property owner to have garbage service, but the city is not a provider: curbside garbage, recycling and yard waste come from Waste Management NW east of Highway 99 and Republic Services west of it, under certificates issued by the state, with the tariffs published by the state Utilities and Transportation Commission. What the city does run is waste reduction: free electronics recycling through the E-Cycle Washington network for computers, monitors, televisions, tablets and e-readers with a ten item limit, plus its own e-waste and styrofoam collection events and paper shredding days for Lynnwood residents. The heavy loads go to Snohomish County. The Southwest Recycling and Transfer Station in Mountlake Terrace, the station closest to Lynnwood, takes household garbage, self hauled construction material and up to five passenger or pickup tires a day at the garbage rate, and it refuses electronics and every cooling appliance. The county also excepts household sofas, appliances, mattresses, doors, carpets and rugs from its six foot and 25 square foot size rule, but it publishes that exception for the North County station in Arlington and the drop boxes rather than for Mountlake Terrace, so confirm a piece that large at the scale house before loading it. Household chemicals go free to the county station in Everett.
Mandatory curbside garbage, recycling and yard waste
Accepted with preparation
Every Lynnwood property owner has to have garbage service, and the service comes from one of two certificated haulers depending on which side of Highway 99 the address sits. The provider handles the account, the carts, the recycling and the yard waste, and it is the only place to ask about a large item.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no rate, because curbside garbage, recycling and yard waste are provided by Waste Management and Republic Services under state certificates with the regulated tariffs published by the state Utilities and Transportation Commission, so confirm the current charge with the provider for the address, Waste Management NW on 1-800-592-9995 or Republic Services on 425-778-0188, or check the tariff, and take unresolved disputes to the commission on 1-888-333-9882.
When & how
Start, stop and service questions go to the provider directly, and the provider sets the collection day for the address.
Get it ready
Keep garbage service active because it is mandatory for property owners, put the carts out for the provider's collection day, and ask that same provider about anything the cart will not hold, because the city does not run a bulky program.
Lynnwood publishes no bulky pickup program, so a couch, a mattress or another large item is either arranged with the certificated hauler for the address or driven to a Snohomish County transfer station. The county excepts household sofas, appliances, mattresses, doors, carpets and rugs from its six foot and 25 square foot size rule at the North County station in Arlington and the drop boxes, and it publishes the size rule without that exception for the Mountlake Terrace station, so confirm a large piece at the scale house.
City cost & eligibility
There is no published bulky price, because the city runs no bulky program and the haulers set their own service charges, while the county transfer station bills such a load as garbage with a flat minimum under 360 pounds or a per ton rate above it, so ask the provider for a quote or expect the county garbage charge.
When & how
Call the hauler for the address, or drive the load to the Southwest Recycling and Transfer Station at 21311 61st Place West in Mountlake Terrace, open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. except four holidays.
Get it ready
Cover and secure the load, because an unsecured load adds a fee. Keep electronics, refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, heat pumps, liquid waste and yard debris out of it, and expect to unload the vehicle yourself at the station.
Furniture goes to a county transfer station as garbage, or on a pickup arranged with the hauler for the address. The county exempts household sofas from its six foot and 25 square foot size rule at the North County station in Arlington and the drop boxes, and publishes the size rule without that exemption for the Mountlake Terrace station, so confirm a sofa at the scale house there. The city's electronics event refuses furniture outright.
City cost & eligibility
From $30 for the flat minimum garbage fee per vehicle carrying 360 pounds or less at a Snohomish County recycling and transfer station, including tax, with heavier loads billed at $160 per ton plus tax. Household loads at the Mountlake Terrace station or the county's other transfer stations; a hauler pickup for the same piece is quoted by the provider for the address.
When & how
Take the piece to a county transfer station during its seven day opening hours, or call the hauler for a pickup time.
Get it ready
Empty the drawers and remove anything you are not sending, cover the load, and keep electronics, cooling appliances and chemicals out of it because those are refused at county facilities.
A mattress goes to a Snohomish County transfer station or on a pickup arranged with the certificated hauler for the address. The county exempts mattresses from its six foot and 25 square foot size rule at the North County station in Arlington and the drop boxes, and publishes the size rule without that exemption for the Mountlake Terrace station, so confirm a mattress at the scale house there.
City cost & eligibility
From $30 for the flat minimum garbage fee per vehicle carrying 360 pounds or less at a Snohomish County recycling and transfer station, including tax, with heavier loads billed at $160 per ton plus tax. Household loads at the Mountlake Terrace station. The county's six foot and 25 square foot size exception that names mattresses is published for the North County station and the drop boxes rather than for this one, so confirm an oversized mattress at the scale house.
When & how
Take the bedding to a county transfer station during its seven day hours, or call the hauler that serves the address.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry, cover the load for the trip, and unload it yourself at the station. There is a ten product limit on electronics at the city's own event, but mattresses are not part of that program and the event refuses them with the rest of the furniture.
Appliances are accepted as garbage at the county transfer stations, so a washer, dryer, stove or water heater can be driven in, and the county excepts them from its six foot and 25 square foot size rule at the North County station in Arlington and the drop boxes. The Mountlake Terrace station is published with the size rule and without that exception, so confirm a large unit at the scale house there, and the city's own electronics event refuses large appliances outright.
City cost & eligibility
From $30 for the flat minimum garbage fee per vehicle carrying 360 pounds or less at a Snohomish County recycling and transfer station, including tax, with heavier loads billed at $160 per ton plus tax. Household loads at the Mountlake Terrace station. The county's size exception that names appliances is published for the North County station and the drop boxes rather than for this one, so confirm a large unit at the scale house; refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers and heat pumps are refused at every county facility and covered by their own rule.
When & how
Take the appliance to a county transfer station from 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on any day, or ask the hauler for a pickup.
Get it ready
Empty the appliance, secure or remove the doors so nothing can be trapped inside, keep it upright for the trip, and keep a cooling unit out of the load because the stations refuse those and the city event refuses large appliances too.
Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and heat pumps
Special rules apply
Cooling appliances are refused everywhere published: the county prohibits refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers and heat pumps at all of its facilities, and the city's electronics event refuses large appliances and air conditioning units as well.
City cost & eligibility
No county facility accepts a refrigerator, freezer, air conditioner, dehumidifier or heat pump, and neither the city nor the haulers publish a collection price, so call the county Solid Waste Division on 425-388-3425 for current handling options and ask the hauler for the address for a quote.
When & how
Call 425-388-3425 or the hauler before the unit moves anywhere, and never set a cooling appliance out with the cart or take it to a county station or the city's electronics event.
Get it ready
Empty and defrost the unit, remove the doors so it cannot be entered, keep the refrigerant charge intact for whoever handles it, and keep the unit out of any load bound for a county facility.
Electronics recycle free through the state E-Cycle Washington network, with a ten product limit, and the city adds its own e-waste and styrofoam collection events for Lynnwood residents, accepting flat screen televisions, computers and peripherals while refusing tube and projection televisions and CRT monitors.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free E-Cycle Washington recycling is available to Washington State residents and businesses with fewer than 50 employees for computers, monitors, televisions of all types and sizes, tablets, e-readers and portable DVD players, with a quantity limit of 10 accepted electronic products, and the city's own collection events are free to Lynnwood residents.
When & how
Drop devices at an E-Cycle Washington location any time using the state locator, or watch the city calendar for its e-waste and styrofoam events, which have run in January and June at the Lynnwood Operations and Maintenance Center, 20525 60th Ave W.
Get it ready
Bring clean electronics to the city event and remember what it refuses: tube and projection televisions, CRT monitors, large appliances, water heaters, barbecues, furniture, exercise equipment, air conditioning units, propane tanks, anything containing liquids or fuel, and batteries that are not lithium-ion. Flat screen televisions, computers, printers, scanners, networking gear, audio equipment, cell phones, cameras, lithium-ion laptop and UPS batteries and microwaves are all accepted.
Project debris goes to the county transfer stations, where brick, concrete, dirt, sod, sand, gravel and rocks are accepted as garbage only, and the state rule lets contractors self haul their own construction waste there.
City cost & eligibility
From $30 for the flat minimum garbage fee per vehicle carrying 360 pounds or less at a Snohomish County recycling and transfer station, including tax, with heavier loads billed at $160 per ton plus tax. Household and self hauled loads at the Mountlake Terrace station, where the same materials are limited to one wheelbarrow at a drop box and accepted in larger quantities at the transfer stations, billed as garbage rather than recycling.
When & how
Take the load to a county transfer station during its seven day hours from 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., or have the contractor self haul its own project waste to the same facilities.
Get it ready
Cover and secure the load, separate material that will be recycled from garbage, keep asbestos, liquid waste, electronics and yard debris out, and expect to unload the vehicle yourself.
Exercise equipment is refused at the city's electronics event and is not named by the city or the county, so a treadmill or a weight machine has to be arranged with the hauler or taken to a county station as a garbage load.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no bulky program and its electronics event lists exercise equipment among the items it will not take, so confirm a pickup and price with the hauler for the address, or take the machine to a county transfer station where it is billed as garbage at the flat minimum under 360 pounds or the per ton rate above it.
When & how
Ask the hauler first, then either arrange the pickup or take the machine to a county transfer station during its seven day opening hours.
Get it ready
Take the machine down as far as it comes apart, keep the console out of the load and route any electronic parts through an E-Cycle location instead, and keep the machine out of the curbside carts and off the city event ground.
Tires are accepted at the county transfer stations at regular garbage rates, limited to five per customer per day and to passenger car and pickup truck sizes.
City cost & eligibility
From $30 for the flat minimum garbage fee per vehicle carrying 360 pounds or less at a Snohomish County recycling and transfer station, including tax, with heavier loads billed at $160 per ton plus tax and tires charged at the regular garbage rate. Five tires per customer per day, passenger car and pickup truck size only, with larger loads or other sizes directed to the county Solid Waste Division on 425-388-3425.
When & how
Take the tires to a county transfer station during its seven day opening hours, staying inside the five tire daily limit.
Get it ready
Keep tires out of the curbside carts, stay within the daily limit, and call 425-388-3425 before loading anything larger than a passenger car or pickup tire.
Household chemicals go free to the Snohomish County hazardous waste station in Everett, which takes a long list of household products and refuses electronics, microwave ovens and cooling appliances.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Residential household hazardous waste carries no county fee; the county publishes the program as free for households, while latex paint is accepted through the PaintCare route and some items carry handling notes.
When & how
Take the material to the Household Hazardous Waste Drop-Off Station at 3434 McDougall Avenue in Everett, open to households Wednesday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and closed on the county's listed holidays.
Get it ready
Keep products in their original containers, never mix chemicals, keep propane tanks to barbecue size or smaller, and keep electronics, microwave ovens, refrigerators and freezers, medical waste and asbestos out because the station refuses them. Dried latex paint can go to a transfer station instead of a liquid load.
Yard waste is part of the curbside service the certificated haulers provide, and the county no longer accepts yard or clean wood debris at its own facilities, so the cart is the local route.
City cost & eligibility
The city lists yard waste as part of the curbside service provided by Waste Management NW and Republic Services but publishes no rate, because the tariffs sit with the state commission, so confirm the current charge and whether food scraps are included with the provider for the address.
When & how
Call the hauler for the address to arrange the yard waste container and its collection day, and note that the county stations do not take yard debris at all.
Get it ready
Keep yard waste in the container the provider supplies and keep it out of the garbage cart and the county transfer station loads, because Snohomish County refuses yard and clean wood debris at every facility, and the city publishes the detailed preparation rules only inside a flyer.
Garbage service is mandatory for every Lynnwood property owner, but the city is not a provider: curbside garbage, recycling and yard waste come from Waste Management NW east of Highway 99 on 1-800-592-9995 or Republic Services west of it on 425-778-0188, under state certificates with tariffs published by the state commission. Start, stop and service questions go to the provider, not the city.
Lynnwood runs its own collection events for residents only, generally an e-waste and styrofoam day in January and June, a shredding day in April and October, and a recycling event in March. The electronics event takes flat screen televisions, computers, printers, scanners, networking gear, audio equipment, cell phones, cameras, lithium-ion laptop and UPS batteries and microwaves, and refuses tube and projection televisions, CRT monitors, large appliances, water heaters, barbecues, furniture, exercise equipment, air conditioning units, propane tanks, anything with liquids or fuel, and batteries that are not lithium-ion.
The Southwest Recycling and Transfer Station at 21311 61st Place West in Mountlake Terrace is open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. apart from New Year's Day, Independence Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas, and bills a flat minimum for loads under 360 pounds or a per ton rate above it with customers unloading their own vehicles. Household sofas, appliances, mattresses, doors, carpets and rugs are accepted as garbage, and the county's six foot and 25 square foot size exception for those pieces is published for the North County station and the drop boxes rather than for this one, so confirm an oversized piece at the scale house. Tires are limited to five a day in passenger and pickup sizes, and electronics, refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, heat pumps, liquid waste and yard debris are refused.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
