That's right as of the 30th garbage collection as we know it will be forever changed in Seattle. No longer will Seattleites be forced to separate there recycling at all, everything from paper to bottles will be collected in the same recycling bin. The amount of things deemed recyclable has been expanded! Composting pickups will begin. Waste management will even pick up old appliances and electronics, used motor oil, old furniture. These improvements are far reaching and almost too good to be true. For information on these changes see the link.

compost pickups are been going on bi-weekly for many years. The great thing is that this is now weekly, Seattlites have new mandated bins, and all types of food, from meats and bones to rotten salad, as well as yard waste are acceptable.
