If Mother Nature’s rampage during last week’s snow and ice storms left your yard with a pile of tree limbs and branches, free disposal is available! King County Executive Dow Constantine signed an Emergency Declaration making Kent eligible for the service.
Dumpsters will be available Saturday and Sunday, February 4 – 5 at Russell Road Park, 24400 Russell Road (across from the golf course), 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
According to Gina Hungerford, Kent’s Conservation Coordinator, workers will be on hand to assist in unloading the materials.
“To help speed up the process, we ask that participants please lay a tarp under the material for ease of removal”, Hungerford said.
This collection is only for wood debris. Stumps, logs and limbs no longer than six feet in length will be accepted.
The following will not be accepted: brush, leaves, grass clippings, sod or soil. People bringing wood debris are reminded to cover their loads. Road litter from unsecured loads is not only unattractive, it poses a serious hazard.
