Did you clean out your garage or teenager’s room over the holiday weekend? 😬 Instead of sending unwanted (but usable) items to the landfill, bring them to our Beyond the Bin collection events and give them a second life. Events take place at the Tacoma Recovery & Transfer Center, 10 AM to ...2 PM, every second and fourth Saturday May – September. Your donations will go to local nonprofit partners who repair, repurpose, and redistribute them back into the community, helping neighbors and reducing waste.
Next event is June 14. Full schedule of events at tacoma.gov/beyondthebin.
