News Release

Happy Valley’s Dumpster Day Returns June 13: Clean Up, Recycle, And Donate To A Good Cause (Photo) - 06/12/26

Happy Valley’s Dumpster Day is back! Join us on Saturday, June 13, 2026, from 8 a.m. to Noon at Happy Valley Park for this annual community event that helps residents responsibly dispose of unwanted household items, recycle materials, and this year support an important local non-profit.

 

Dumpster Day continues to focus on sustainability and smart recycling by providing convenient drop-off locations for a variety of household items. Residents can learn how to properly dispose of common materials and help divert waste from the landfill.

 

New this year, the city has teamed up with the Mattress Recycling Council’s Bye Bye Mattress program to accept old mattresses and box springs for recycling. Instead of taking up valuable landfill space, these items will be dismantled, and their materials recycled and repurposed into new products giving worn-out mattresses and box springs a second life.

 

Community partners will once again help make recycling easy. Metro will be on-site collecting household batteries, light bulbs, and sharps for safe disposal. Les Schwab will accept old tires, and residents can bring sensitive documents for free on-site shredding, helping protect personal information while reducing waste. Residents are also encouraged to bring donations for Goodwill, which will be collecting gently used clothing, household items, and other reusable goods. These donations help support local individuals and families in need.

The event will also continue its partnership with Reborn Bikes, a nonprofit organization that collects, repairs, and redistributes bicycles to individuals who need reliable transportation for work, school, and daily activities. If you have a bicycle, you no longer use, consider donating it to help someone in our community.

 

Dumpster Day would not be possible without the incredible support of our volunteers and community partners. The city extends a special thank you to volunteers from National Charity League-Sunnyside Chapter, Boys Team Charity Happy Valley League and members of the Oregon National Guard, whose hard work helps keep the event running smoothly and safely each year.

 

In addition to cleaning out garages and reducing waste, residents will have an opportunity to support local recreation opportunities. Donations will be accepted during the event to benefit the Happy Valley Parks & Recreation Foundation, helping fund programs, projects, and recreational opportunities that enhance quality of life throughout the community.

Please note that Dumpster Day is open to Happy Valley residents only, and proof of residency (ID) may be requested at the entrance.

 

Join us on Saturday, June 13, 2026, from 8 a.m. to noon at Happy Valley Park, 13770 SE Ridgecrest Road, Happy Valley, OR 97086, for our annual Dumpster Day event. Clean up, recycle responsibly, support local causes, and help make Happy Valley a cleaner, greener community.
