Residents dropped off more than 500 tons of branches, limbs and other wood debris during last weekend’s collection events, which are open to all King County residents and exclusively for collecting wood debris from the recent storms. Stumps, logs and limbs no longer than six feet in length are allowed – no brush, leaves, grass clippings, sod or soil can be accepted. Residents delivering wood debris are reminded to secure their loads. To ease with removal and to help speed up service, residents are asked to place debris on top of a tarp or sheet of plywood. There are have several additional storm debris disposal options available, including curbside recycling (yard waste cart) and commercial recycling companies that charge a fee for their service, but may prove to be more convenient for some residents.
