Whitman County Public Works

      Whitman County operates the transfer station that we use.  The trash is dumped at the transfer station where it is loaded into trailers and then trucked to a regional landfill in Oregon.  The rate we pay for dumping trash is the same as the public's rate: $69 per ton.  The county also processes the yard waste that we collect on our curbside route and in our drop-off site drop-boxes.  For more information on the county, access their website at www.palouse.org/whitman.
