What's New at the Recycling Center
Winthrop Drop-off Station!
The bin for flattened corrugated cardboard at Horizon Flats (across from N. Valley Lumber) is open and currently accessible around the clock.
We will add bins for other commodities as soon as the funds are committed. Thanks to the Moccassin Lake Foundation and Community Foundation of N. Central WA we've already raised $15,000 toward this goal, $22,000 left to go.
If you'd like to contribute to this project you may send your tax deductible contribution to our address with "Winthrop Bin" on your check. We also accept credit/debit cards through Paypal and donations of stock. If you would like to donate stock, please contact Betsy Cushman at 996-2696.
Summer hours at the center - April 1st through September 30th: Tue, Wed, Thu 10-4, Sat 9-4
Additional volunteers are needed on most shifts.
The Twisp transfer station will be open these same hours plus Fri 10-4.
