Due to excessive contamination, we are no longer accepting lumber recycling at our Valley View Transfer Station. Please review the list of accepted recycled items on our page. All lumber will be directed to regular trash. If you’d still like to recycle your lumber, please take it to Bio Mass White City.
Recology is proud to release our 2025 Sustainability Update, marking another year of progress in building a more sustainable and circular future. We’re not just collecting materials—we're reshaping systems, deepening community partnerships, and creating real momentum toward a more sustainable, circular economy.
Effective July 1, the initial phase of Oregon’s Recycling Modernization Act (RMA) goes into effect. This means Recology Ashland will adhere to the new Unified Statewide Collection List (USCL) for curbside recyclables. Some NEW items that can be included in your blue recycling cart include: Nursery pots Plastic pails and buckets Aseptic and poly-coated cartons […]
Visit the Valley View Transfer Station to drop off items that cannot be donated, such as refrigerators and sofas.
Items such as electronics, fluorescent bulbs and tubes, paints, pesticides, cleaning products, old medications, and other chemicals are illegal to put in the garbage or pour down a drain or gutter because they contaminate our soil, drinking water, and air.
Electronic and universal waste, such as fluorescent tubes, should not be placed in your garbage cart. See where you can drop them off!
