Recycling Center
Recycling Drop Off Center
218 Runyon St, Hot Springs, AR 71901
A neighborhood recycling center on Elysian Fields that locals use to keep recyclables out of the landfill. People drop off household paper, cardboard, bottles, cans and common curbside plastics here; it’s the kind of place hauled-to by residents and small cleanups.
The site is a paved lot with large roll-off bins and corrals; look for the entrance booth and drive-up lanes where vehicles pull up to unload. Containers for glass, paper, cardboard and mixed recyclables are grouped together, and there’s usually room to back a small truck or trailer up to a bin. Because this is Louisiana, wet-weather and hurricane protocols are part of how the site operates, so expect tarps or covered areas after storms and extra muddy spots when it’s been raining hard.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Sort and flatten cardboard at home to move through the line faster and save space in the bins.
- Bring bungee cords or a tarp for loose items-high moisture and wind can make loads messy here.
- Try a weekday morning if possible; weekends, especially during neighborhood cleanups or spring, tend to be busier and slower.
