Recycle and Reuse Drop-Off Center

The City of Austin has a goal of achieving Zero Waste by 2040 (diverting 90 percent of the community’s waste from the landfill) and the Recycle and Reuse Drop-Off Center is one way to help achieve that.

The Household Hazardous Waste Facility and the Resource Recovery Center have merged into the Recycle & Reuse Drop-Off Center. The Recycle & Reuse Drop-Off Center is operated by the City of Austin. At the Recycle & Reuse Drop-Off Center, you can drop off many items to be recycled, reused, or safely discarded. You can also pick up free items to reuse yourself.

Most Recycle & Reuse Drop-Off Center services are free to Austin residents, but some services have a fee. Eligibility and cost information are listed with each service. Pro Tip – The Recycle & Reuse Drop-Off Center is your go-to location to drop-off items that are hard to dispose of, including hazardous waste (batteries, aerosol cans, cleaning products), clothing, electronics, and appliances. It’s also the only place in Austin where you can drop off styrofoam to be recycled! Items dropped off at the Recycle & Reuse Drop-Off Center will be reused (when possible) and properly recycled. While at the Recycle & Reuse Drop-Off Center you can also “shop” (all items are free) at the ReUse Store. Common items that can be found at the store include art supplies, cleaning products, household chemicals, and automotive fluids. While at the center you can also pick up Austin ReBlend Paint, which is made from paint that is dropped off by other Austinites and is available for free to individuals and nonprofits. Free mulch is also available for pickup, but you have to bring your own pitchfork/shovel and container for it. Please note that mattresses, furniture, toilets, and non-recyclable trash are not accepted.
