WSRA Annual Conference 2027
The 2026 Washington State Recycling Association (WSRA) Annual Conference runs May 4‑7 at Tulalip Resort Casino, emphasizing equity by partnering with the Tulalip Tribes. The program features nearly 20 breakout tracks covering topics such as solid waste policy, reuse, extended producer responsibility, furniture circularity, school waste, organics, recycling reform, and more. Highlights include a silent auction fundraiser, the "Recycler of the Year" awards, and two pre‑conference tours (soil‑health research at WSU and a recycling/composting tour at Lautenbach Recycling). Registration tiers offer early, regular, and one‑day options for members and non‑members, with scholarships and community‑support grants available to reduce financial barriers. Additional resources address BIPOC business support and appropriate terminology for Native nations. The conference aims to foster networking, education, and industry leadership in waste reduction and recycling.
