The city of Maple Valley Public Works Department does not provide collection of residential or business storm debris.
However, there are some local options where residents can dispose of storm debris.
Residents subscribing to curb-side yard/food waste can put storm debris into their yard carts. Material cannot be larger than 4 inches in diameter or 4 feet in length; weight varies by container size and hauler. Waste Management will be accepting a double load of yard waste even if you were not missed on your last collection day.
Allied Waste will accept a double load of yard waste on your next regularly scheduled collection day only if you were missed. Roll-off containers (large containers dropped off by the hauler) can be delivered for storm debris where there are larger volumes or where homeowners’ associations (HOAs) want to provide a neighborhood point for debris drop-off. Container fees and disposal fees apply depending on size. Waste Management customers can call 1-800-592-9995;
Allied Waste customers can call 206-682-9735 for fees and container delivery.
