Van Buren County Recycling Center

Van Buren County Recycling Center in Clinton is the local spot for dropping off recyclable materials instead of throwing them in the landfill. Neighbors from the county and town swing by with everything from cardboard to cans. It’s the kind of place people use when doing a cleanout or routine recycling run.

A modest roadside facility sitting off Volunteer Parkway with a small entrance booth and a handful of large collection containers. Pull up to the booth area first, then move to the lanes that lead to the sorting bays or outdoor bins. Expect piles of flattened cardboard, pallets of baled paper, and separate containers for glass, plastics, and metals; some centers also run occasional programs for electronics or bulky-item drop-offs. Weekends tend to be busier, so allow extra time if stopping by on a Saturday.
