Yard Debris Recycling Sale in November

FireFree announces a Fire Sale at Deschutes Recycling, located at Knott Landfill, running Saturday, November 1 - Sunday November 16.

Deschutes Recycling will accept your flammable yard waste and debris at Knott Landfill for half off the regular price. For the 16 day event, yard debris disposal will cost only $2.00 per yard. The yard debris will be recycled and diverted from the landfill.

FireFree encourages residents to complete their fall clean up and maintenance of defensible space by brining branches, leaves, shrubs, and pine needles to Deschutes Recycling.

"We hope residents will take advantage of this new FireFree event as an alternative to fall burning and recycle the combustible vegetation around their homes," recommends Kate Lighhall, Program Coordinator for the FireFree program.
