Amid the Teamsters' strike against Republic Services, the company has initiated a free waste drop-off service for Lake Forest Park and Kenmore residents. This service allows residents to dispose of garbage, compostables, and recycling at City Hall on July 17 and 18, 2025, from 9 AM to 3 PM. Participants should bag their materials, with Republic Services staff available on-site for assistance. The strike has raised concerns about waste management in the affected areas, prompting this initiative. The drop-off location is 17425 Ballinger Way NE, Lake Forest Park, WA 98155.
