FLAGSTAFF — The Willard Springs Green Waste Site will reopen this Friday, July 17 for free green waste-only disposal after a temporary closure to support aerial firefighting operations for the Pocket Fire.
The site was closed on July 1 for public safety so it could serve as a staging area for fire suppression materials used by helicopter firefighting crews.
Willard Springs is open Fridays and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Oct. 31. The last load of green waste is accepted through the gate at 4:30 p.m. each operating day. This schedule is subject to change due to weather or unforeseen circumstances.
The Willard Springs Green Waste Site is located approximately 15 miles south of Flagstaff, just west of Interstate 17 at the Willard Springs Road exit (Exit 326).
The site accepts green waste only and does not accept bulk or household waste. For more information, visit coconino.az.gov/WillardSprings
