Wood Village · 97024 · 97060
Weekly, every-other-week and monthly dog waste removal in Wood Village, Oregon. Both of the city's ZIP codes are already served, there is no small-property minimum, and the rate is the same one every other city on the route pays.
This one does. Wood Village is a city of roughly 4,700 people wedged between Fairview, Troutdale and Gresham, and it gets left off a lot of service maps for exactly that reason — it is small, and it is at the far east end of the metro. Both of its ZIP codes are on my route already.
If you have called around, you have probably had the experience where a Portland-based company either does not list Wood Village at all or quotes you a travel surcharge for being past 181st. That is a routing decision on their end, not a fact about your address. When a company runs crews out of inner Portland, everything east of Gresham is a detour.
This route is built the other way round. It runs east — Gresham, Troutdale, Fairview, Happy Valley — and Wood Village sits in the middle of it rather than at the end of a long drive. Serving a small city between two larger ones costs me nothing extra, so there is no surcharge and no minimum property size.
Worth saying, because it explains the housing stock: Wood Village was built as a company town for the Reynolds Aluminum plant over in Troutdale, which closed in 2000. That history is why a small city has such consistent mid-century blocks alongside newer development near the Town Center. Practically, it means a lot of modest, well-fenced back yards — which is a straightforward yard to service and a genuinely good fit for every-other-week.
I walk the whole property in a grid, edges included. Everything is double-bagged and leaves with me. Every gate is re-latched and you get a message confirming the yard is done and secured before I drive off.
Wood Village addresses fall under 97024 (shared with Fairview) or 97060 (shared with Troutdale). Both are served, so whichever one your mail uses, the booking gate will accept it. There is no part of Wood Village outside the service area.
This is worth spelling out because a two-ZIP city confuses ZIP-based service checkers constantly. Enter either one on the quote page and you will get a real price rather than a "we'll get back to you." If you are not sure which ZIP your address uses, use the one on your mail — the gate is checking coverage, not verifying your identity.
It also means Wood Village is genuinely central to this route rather than an outlier: 97024 is the Fairview run and 97060 is the Troutdale run, and Wood Village sits across both.
All of it. Wood Village is small enough that there is no meaningful interior boundary — the residential blocks north and south of Halsey, the streets around the Town Center, and everything up to the Fairview, Troutdale and Gresham lines.
Neighbouring cities on the same route: Fairview to the west, Troutdale to the east, Gresham to the south.

| Plan | Fits | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly | 2+ dogs, or a yard in daily use | Nothing visibly accumulates between visits. |
| Every other week | One dog, a standard fenced back yard | The most common plan here. Noticeable by day 12, never bad. |
| Monthly | A small or part-time dog, or a mostly-paved yard | A monthly reset rather than upkeep. |
| One-time | Move-outs, deposit cleanups, spring catch-up | A single deep clean with no plan attached. |
All I need is a way into the yard. Rentals are welcome, and dogs at home are usually fine as long as I know about them in advance.
Renters are welcome and no documentation is required — just yard access and a landlord or property manager who is fine with someone entering. If your lease makes the yard your responsibility, a one-time clean at move-out is often the cheapest way to protect a deposit.
Usually fine. Tell me at signup if your dog is anxious with strangers, reactive, or an escape artist, and we will plan around it — including keeping them inside for the visit if that is simplest.
One text is enough. Gate codes, a new latch, a side gate that now sticks — it gets noted on the account and applies from the next visit.
Wood Village is in Multnomah County, so Multnomah County Code chapter 13 applies: you are required to remove your dog's waste in public places — streets, sidewalks, parking strips and parks — with penalties up to a $250 fine or 25 to 50 hours of community service.
It does not regulate your own back yard, and any service implying it does is selling with a scare. The genuine reasons to keep a yard clean are the bacteria and parasites in the waste itself, the nitrogen and phosphorus that run off into the watershed in a wet winter, and the plain fact that it is your yard.
Multnomah County Code ch. 13 (Animal Services).Weekly service is $24.13 per visit for one dog, $36.20 every other week, and $67.93 monthly. Two dogs on weekly service is $26.68 a visit. A one-time catch-up cleanup starts at $79.99. Wood Village pays the standard route rate. There is no small-property minimum and no surcharge for being the smallest city on the map.
Wood Village is genuinely on the route, not an exception I make. Both of its ZIP codes — 97024 and 97060 — are already served, because the route runs east through Fairview and Troutdale with Wood Village in the middle of it rather than at the end of a long drive from Portland.
Whichever one your mail uses. Both are served, so either will return a real price on the quote page. Wood Village addresses fall under 97024 with Fairview or 97060 with Troutdale, and there is no part of the city outside the service area.
Neither. There is no small-property minimum and no distance surcharge. Wood Village pays the standard route rate, the same one Gresham and Happy Valley pay.
No. As long as I can reach the yard, you never need to be home. Every gate gets re-latched and you get a "yard secured" confirmation after each visit.
Yes. All that is needed is yard access and a landlord or property manager who is fine with someone entering the yard. No documentation is requested.
It is double-bagged and hauled off your property. It does not go in your curbside cart, a park receptacle, or a neighbour's bin.
There is no contract. Service is month-to-month — pause, change frequency, or cancel any time. Quarterly billing saves 10% but it is optional and is not a commitment term.
