About 80 percent of our nation's garbage
goes to landfills. Many landfills are rapidly running out of room;
ours is expected to close by the year 2013. With fewer places for our
trash to go, we'll need to start generating less by reducing, reusing,
and recycling as much as possible. Try
your hand at shrinking the amount of new material going into a
community's landfill. |
The
Transfer Site Accepts:
refuse generated within Cowlitz or Wahkiakum
County only, please have appropriate identification available such as
valid driver license, utility bill, tax statement, job bid, or building
