2good2toss.com is Washington’s online exchange for reusable building materials and household items. The objective of the site is to facilitate the recycling and repurposing of materials and items that would otherwise be disposed at Washington state landfills and waste to energy facilities, in addition to promoting an important environmental ethic.

You can post listings of items and materials you wish to get rid of or browse for those currently available in your area. Each listing contains a description of the materials along with a name and telephone number and any cost or delivery information. The actual exchange transactions are carried out directly between the interested parties.

Keep in mind, since there is a limit to the length of time a material listing can be posted, it pays to visit the site often. Your patience is appreciated as the Department of Ecology and your local solid waste agency work to increase the use of this site through marketing. Thank you and help spread the word.

2good2toss.com is in keeping with Ecology's mission, as set forth in chapter 70.95 RCW, to reduce the volume of solid waste placed in the state's landfills and waste to energy facilities through waste reduction, source separation, recycling, and diversion.

Making an exchange is quick and easy. Just an email or phone call can get you started.
