Chelan County Solid Waste Update Leavenworth Brush Drop Off Site 4142020 City of Leavenworth

Chelan County has made significant adjustments to its solid waste management programs due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, particularly impacting operations at the Dryden and Chelan Transfer Stations. These facilities are now open exclusively on Fridays and Saturdays, with a strong emphasis on general household waste to alleviate congestion from larger loads of spring-cleaning debris. As a precautionary measure, the county urges visitors to utilize credit services at the Dryden Transfer Station to reduce cash handling and enhance safety. On April 17, 2020, residents living within the Apple Maggot Quarantine Area will have the opportunity to use the Leavenworth Brush Drop-Off Site, reinforcing the county's commitment to managing agricultural pests. The county expresses gratitude to the community for their understanding and cooperation during these temporary changes.

Updates regarding the transfer station hours and operations can be found on the Chelan County Solid Waste Management website. The county remains dedicated to returning to normal operations as soon as the situation allows. Overall, these adaptations reflect the county's responsiveness to public health needs while continuing to serve the community effectively.
