check e-card usage
As
of September 1st, 2006, the City of Portland switched to the new
e-card system. Gone are the days of the colored punch passes. The new
e-cards allow for quick and easy use of the Riverside Recycling Facility,
while at the same time preventing fraudulent use of services.
IMPORTANT!

Only property owners who receive trash and recycling
services
from the City are currently eligible for the City's E-Card program.
-
When you pick up your e-card you need TWO documents. A
picture ID (such as a driver’s license) and proof that you own your home
(either a tax bill or a mortgage statement).
Check E-card Usage
If your address is not found, please try only using the street name.
Usage updates are done each Friday.
