New King County Disposal Rates

Effective January 1, 2012, King County solid waste disposal fees will increase from $95 per ton to $109 per ton. This rate increase applies to all residents of King County who subscribe to a curbside garbage collection service or who use a County transfer station.

City of Des Moines residents’ rates will not increase in January 2012. The increase in disposal rates was built into your CleanScapes service in effect as of November, 2011. On your first bill from CleanScapes you will receive a one-time credit to reflect the lower cost of disposal for the first two months of service.
