Hidden Valley Transfer Station self-haul disposal

17925 Meridian Ave East, Puyallup, WA 98375 · 18 miles away · destination not stated

LRI transfer station serving Pierce County; the price sheet charges residential and commercial disposed waste at the same rate and states no residency restriction. Pierce County residential or commercial yard waste under a ton is free.

Conditions and source

17925 Meridian Ave East, Puyallup, WA 98375, main office 253-847-7555, open every day 8:00 am to 5:45 pm except New Year's, Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. The 2022 price sheet sets disposed waste at $172.44 per ton with a $34.49 minimum per trip including up to 400 pounds, and states that three or fewer mattresses or box springs are charged as regular garbage while four or more are $55 apiece. LRI's current rates page instead shows $202.35 per ton with a $40.50 minimum per trip including up to 400 lbs. All rates include the 3.6% state refuse collection tax. Household hazardous waste is accepted Tuesdays and Thursdays only, 8am-12pm and 1pm-5pm.

  • $40.50 — Current LRI minimum charge per trip including up to 400 lbs ($202.35 per ton), including the 3.6% state refuse collection tax
  • $55 — Each mattress or box spring when a load carries four or more; three or fewer are charged as regular garbage by weight (price sheet updated 3/1/2022, not repeated on the current rates page)

Not confirmed: The mattress rule comes from a price sheet updated 3/1/2022, and the current rates page carries no mattress line, so the $55-apiece figure may be stale.

Not confirmed: piercecountywa.gov returns HTTP 403 to automated fetches, so the County's own transfer station page could not be cross-checked.
