Half Price Yard Debris Recyclilng Event

November 1 - November 13, residents can recycle their yard debris at Deschutes Recycling for half price ($2.00 per cubic yard).

Deschutes Recycling is located at Knott Landfill, 61050 SE 27th Street in Bend.

FireFree encourages residents to complete their fall clean up and maintenance of defensible space by bringing branches, leaves, shrubs and pine needles to Deschutes Recycling during this event. “The City of Bend banned debris burning inside the city limits last year so this is an excellent opportunity for Bend residents to recycle their debris inexpensively and legally,” says Katie Lighthall, FireFree Coordinator.

Yard debris must be clean; no rocks, dirt, garbage and plastic bags.

Deschutes Recycling is open Monday - Saturday (closed Sundays) 7:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Deschutes Recycling will also be closed on Veterans Day - Thursday, November 11.
