Wildfire Debris Disposal Resources
This is a page dedicated to helping our customers and the communities we serve find information related to wildfire cleanup — including the proper disposal of wildfire debris.
Important steps to follow for the safe disposal of wildfire debris
Cleaning up after a wildfire is an emotional evolution, but also involves immediate and long-term physical health risks. At Dry Creek Landfill and the Transfer Station in White City, the safety of our customers, employees and community is of utmost importance.
Wildfire debris can contain a wide variety of hazardous materials — everything from easily inhaled soot particles and asbestos to toxic amounts of heavy metals, such as arsenic, lead and mercury. And household items — like propane tanks, air conditioners, batteries, cleaning products and pesticides — may be hazardous or require specific handling and disposal. So to keep everyone safe, there are special requirements for the transportation and disposal of wildfire debris.
