segregated recyclables. However, state law, as enforced by the Washington
Utilities & Transportation Commission (WUTC), prohibits us from
hauling any trash, garbage, or other type of solid waste.

Because the following items are not recyclable, Interstate Dropbox
Services is not allowed to handle them:

Clients assume full responsibility for prohibited materials placed
in dropboxes. If our drivers determine that such materials have
been included, they will not be permitted to transport the load.
The customer will be required to remove and dispose of the objectionable
material. In cases where undetected contaminated waste reaches the
recycling station, customers may be subject to surcharges, discontinuation
of service, or other terms and conditions.
If you anticipate that your project will generate solid waste materials
such as those described in the list above, you have the option of
collecting the waste and transporting it yourself or arranging pickup
service with Waste Connections (Clark County residents call 360-892-5370)
or Waste Management (Vancouver city residents call 360-737-2425).
Although we encounter contamination problems with very few of our
clients, it is essential that we rectify this situation so that
we are in compliance with state regulations. Please call us at (360)
887-8034 if you have questions.
