Visit a Compost Site
Recycle a wide range of household items, drop off organic yard waste, pick up mulch and compost, and more! Select a location to learn more. Note that the Boone Grove and Portage Compost Sites are closed for season December 12th-March 20.
Where Can I Recycle It?
Whether you have coffee cans full of used batteries, a collection of old eyeglasses, a pile of tires, or something else to dispose of, we can help. Discover drop-off locations for some of our most requested items and search our directory for more unusual items.

Does your office recycle paper? ♻️🤔 Recycling paper can have a positive effect on our environment. If everyone pitched in and recycled their office paper, we could save vast stretches of forest all around the world!

Putting salt on your driveway this week? Please remember: SALT BAGS ARE NOT RECYCLABLE! Because these bags have traces of salt they must be thrown away and are not accepted with plastic bag recycling. Like or share this post to help remind our neighbors!
