MISSION STATEMENT
To protect the environment and public health by providing
safe, reliable, efficient and cost effective solid waste disposal and recycling
services for our customers. |
The Washington County Commissioners and the Solid Waste Department are responsible for the proper disposal of solid waste generated in Washington County. Although it is estimated that the Forty West Landfill will accommodate the County's disposal needs for approximately 50 years, waste reduction and recycling are encouraged for the benefit of all Washington County residents. Your cooperation is appreciated by County Government and your fellow residents.
