Garbage and recycling pickup resumes in Seattle after last week’s snowstorm.

Seattle Public Utilities says customers may double their normal amount of garbage, recycling, and compost on their collection day with no additional fees. That includes recycling even if it’s not a typical week for pickup.

However, recyclers may not be able to collect all. If you’re missed this week, you’re able to double up next week on the regular collection day.

Transfer stations and household hazardous waste facilities are open with normal hours.

Check here for tips on setting out extra waste.
