The Spokane Tribe has a new recycling center through The Tribal Recycling Alliance program to support environmental sustainability and responsible waste management. This is a great opportunity to drop off recyclables, meet the team, and learn how you can contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable future for our community.
The center will accept a variety of materials, including plastics, metals, glass, and paper. Designated bins will be available for:
aluminum,
steel cans,
glass bottles/jars,
plastic jugs/bottles,
mixed paper (no coated/waxed paper), and
cardboard.
To ensure a quick drop-off, we request you sort your recyclables before arrival.
