Meanwhile, the Oregon Dept. of Environmental Quality reported a record high 2013 recovery rate of 53.9%. 

Nationally, the average recycling rate was 34.5% in 2012. Ecology's EcoConnect blog has more information on Washington's recycling numbers and Resource Recycling covered the Oregon recovery rate and the Washington recycling rate.
