Waste to Energy (WTE) Transfer Station is operated by the City of Spokane  This site provides clean and convenient, one-stop drop locations for yard waste, food waste, trash, recycling, and household hazardous waste.

If you have Clean Green and garbage in the same load and want to be charged the two different rates, you must go through the line twice. Appliances: Residential appliances are accepted and recycled, but are charged the regular sold waste charge because they require special handling. Construction, demolition, and land clearing waste is solid waste, largely inert, resulting from the construction, renovation, and demolitions of razing buildings, roads, and other man-made structures. The primary difference between demolition and inert waste is that demolition waste is considered susceptible to decomposition, where inert waste is considered resistant to decomposition. This waste stream often includes:

• Asphalt
• Bricks
• Concrete
• Glass
• Gypsum
• Metals
• Plastics
• Salvaged components (doors, windows, plumbing fixtures)
• Soil
• Trees, stumps, earth, and rock
• Wood

If you have CDL material you need to dispose of, you can take it to one of the three regional Transfer Stations or check out the Spokane Waste Directory Database to find out what you can take where.
