LOCAL DISPOSAL OPTIONS
How to dispose of common items in Clearwater County
Mattresses, couches and household furniture
Normal household bulky material can use the county waste system, but larger cleanout loads should be taken directly to the regional landfill rather than overloading a small transfer station.
Appliances, electronics, paint, propane and other special items
The county network separates electronics, batteries, propane, household hazardous waste, tires and refrigerant appliances. A refrigerant appliance carries a specific per-unit fee.
Renovation, construction and yard debris
Construction waste, including drywall, uses the county’s regional disposal rules. Asbestos has a specific landfill procedure and scheduled acceptance requirements, so it must never be mixed into ordinary renovation debris.
