As we've remarked on this blog many times, when it comes to solid waste disposal, at our house we're as happy as worms in a compost bin. We recycle like mad, compost just about all our vegetable waste, reuse lots of cast-off stuff in crafts projects, and have cut down how much we throw out quite a bit. We've gotten along well with our local waste hauler over the years, too.

And so I doubt that we'll ever have to look up the City of Portland's residential garbage rules and regulations. But if you ever do, here they are.
