Thanksgiving Schedule + Tips & Tricks

November 22, 2023

Happy Thanksgiving from our team to yours! We hope you're celebrating with family & friends and enjoying a delicious meal together. We are grateful for YOU! Our community is incredible and we want to thank you today for working alongside us at NLSS. 🍁🦃

As a reminder, your garbage, recycling, and mixed compost pick ups won't be effected by the holiday.

  • All routes are on schedule.
  • The transfer station is closed.
  • The recycling center is open from 8-12pm.
  • The office is closed.

Wondering what to do with your Thanksgiving leftovers? We are here to help with some Thanksgiving tips & tricks to a more sustainable holiday.

Recycle: ♻

  • Carboard boxes
  • Canned cranberry sauce
  • Soda or sparkling water cans
  • Pro Tip! You can recycle your wine and beer glass at the Recycling Center (1726 SE Hwy 101)

Compost: 🌱

  • Veggie food scraps
  • Egg cartons
  • Used paper plates

Reuse: 🍽

  • Cloth napkins
  • Turkey basters
  • Leftovers for your whole family (35% of a Thanksgiving turkey is thrown away & around 25% of the overall feast is discarded, too...let's reduce these numbers!)

We are so grateful for your partnership in making Lincoln City a more sustainable place to live. Thank you for participating!
