FireFree Event at Deschutes Recycling a Huge Success
In support of FireFree, Deschutes Recycling offered residents an opportunity to recycle their yard debris and brush for half price. Residents took advantage of this discount and over the 16 day event, 7,415 cubic yards of yard debris and brush were brought to Deschutes Recycling. The yard debris will be recycled into compost and clean energy fuel.
This program was in support of Project Wild Fire and FireFree to help residents use this event as an alternative to fall burning and recycle combustible vegetation around their homes.
