Small neighborhood recycling center in Watsonville used by residents dropping off household recyclables and yard materials. Located at 320 Harvest Dr, it’s the kind of place people swing by with a trunk full of cardboard or a pile of cans. California rules mean many folks separate recyclables and organics before coming here.

Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to pull into lanes for scales or drop-off bays; there’s usually a visible line on busy weekends. The site is mostly open lots with large roll-off bins and a few covered areas for sorting; expect to carry items to the appropriate container or set them on a pallet if larger. Commonly accepted items at centers like this include cardboard, paper, glass, metal cans, certain plastics, and yard waste, and some places run special programs for electronics or household hazardous materials. Lines get longer in spring and on Saturdays, and having items pre-sorted will make the whole stop go faster.

Before You Go

  • Flatten boxes and bundle cardboard so it fits in the bin - saves time and space when unloading.
  • Bring gloves and a tarp for loose items; the wind can scatter light materials on an open lot.
  • Separate organics from dry recyclables beforehand because California facilities often expect materials to be sorted on drop-off.
