Brought to you by Portsmouth Neighborhood Association and University Park Neighborhood Association with generous support from Metro and the FOE 3426 North Portland Eagles.
$20 suggested donation but NO ONE turned away for lack of funds.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED - reach out to [email protected].
This is a bulk waste event - think old furniture, mattresses, lawn furniture, stuff like that.


We cannot accept:
No recyclable materials (except metal). Metal that is separated from other materials will be accepted for recycling.
No debris from construction, demolition or remodeling, nor yard debris, kitchen garbage, or commercial waste. No hazardous waste, including paint, chemicals, herbicides, pesticides, aerosol sprays, etc.

Your volunteers reserve the right to refuse materials that appear unsafe, unsanitary, or hazardous.
If you have any questions what's a hazardous waste, call Metro on Friday, before you load up and come to us: 503-234-3000. It's what we'll do if we have any questions.
IT'S BETTER TO CALL METRO FIRST THAN TO HAVE A LOADED TRUCK TURNED AWAY.
The transfers station itself is open on Saturday but they don't answer their phones.
Please come prepared to unload your materials, with gloves if you'll need them.
Be nice! Everyone is volunteering their time for this community event.

Will you come?
