Recycling in Woodburn: A Local Guide
Woodburn, a city in northern Marion County in Oregon's Willamette Valley, is home to two recycling facilities that serve complementary needs: a county-operated public transfer station accepting a wide range of materials and a private scrap-metal and auto-salvage yard that pays sellers by weight.
North Marion Recycling & Transfer Station, operated by Marion County at 17827 Whitney Lane NE, is open every day of the week from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM (closed on designated county holidays). Recycling is free for electronics (up to 7 TVs, computers, monitors, or laptops per customer per day under Oregon E-Cycles), mixed paper and cardboard, glass bottles and jars, plastic bottles and jugs, scrap metal, household and vehicle batteries, paint (PaintCare), and used motor oil (residential, 5-gallon limit). Garbage, yard waste, tires, and appliances are also accepted for a fee. As of January 1, 2025, the station only accepts hand-unload deliveries — tip loads are no longer permitted.
M&M Auto Wrecking & Recycling at 947 S Pacific Highway is a private salvage yard and scrap-metal buyer serving the broader Willamette Valley. It weighs and buys ferrous metal, aluminum, copper, brass, insulated wire, stainless steel, radiators, and lead-acid batteries — sellers are paid by weight and no drop-off fee applies. M&M also purchases junk and salvage vehicles (title and valid ID required) and sells new, used, and rebuilt auto parts. Hours are Monday–Friday 8:00 AM–5:00 PM and Saturday 10:00 AM–3:00 PM; closed Sundays.
