Become a Master Recycler
The next round of classes will be in September/October in Hillsboro. Please see Class Registration for more details. The Master Recycler training provides instruction in topics such as waste reduction, recycling processes, alternatives to hazardous household products, composting and green building. Classes are taught by professionals from the public and private sector who are working on innovative solutions to environmental challenges. Course graduates agree to volunteer 30 hours putting their skills to work to help others learn the three Rs: reduce the amount of natural resources used in the first place, reuse material and recycle what cannot be salvaged. Master Recyclers volunteer to staff information booths at community events, make presentations, and work on special projects in their neighborhoods, schools, and workplaces. Classes are held January/February in Clackamas County, April/May in Multnomah County and September/October in Washington County. Registration usually opens about a month before classes.
