Apartment Cleanouts in Vancouver, WA
Across the Columbia, the job is the same but the tax is different. Vancouver cleanouts are priced exactly like Portland’s — a quarter of the truck is $241, a sofa $126 — and Washington’s 3.6% solid-waste collection tax applies on top.
The Couve
Vancouver grew up around Fort Vancouver, the Hudson’s Bay Company post founded in 1825. Today it’s a city of about 195,300 with a revitalized waterfront, Esther Short Park downtown, and neighborhoods of 1940s–70s homes around the core.
About 2.9% of residents speak a Slavic language at home, reflecting the Russian- and Ukrainian-speaking households across Clark County.
