Recycling Center

365 Disposal & Recycling

11153 Tuxford St, Sun Valley, CA 91352

(818) 356-1732

Small, no-frills recycling center in Sun Valley that locals drop off everything from cardboard to old cans. People bringing residential loads and small business haulers both show up-it's the sort of place where the goal is getting stuff out of the trash and back into the loop. Signs are basic and the yard looks like a working industrial lot, not a showroom.

Drive into the lot at 11153 Tuxford St and approach a small entrance booth and scale-vehicles usually stop twice, once in and once out, since most centers charge by weight. Bins and sorting areas sit to the right past the booth, with large piles or roll-offs for paper, cardboard, metals, glass and mixed plastics; many centers in California also handle electronics or appliances in separate drop-off areas. The ground is concrete with heavy vehicle traffic, so take care walking between bins and watch for forklifts or loaders. Weekends and spring-cleanup times get backed up, so lines at the entrance can form and waiting is common.

Before You Go

  • Bring items already separated as much as possible-cardboard flattened, cans and bottles grouped-to speed unloading.
  • Leave loose trash at home; most recycling centers expect only recyclables or specific bulky items, and mixed trash can mean extra fees.
  • Use a pickup or trailer if hauling a lot; residential carloads are common but larger loads take longer to sort and can increase wait time.
