Cherry Creek Recycling Drop Off is a neighborhood recycling center in southeast Denver that locals use to drop off household recyclables. Folks from nearby neighborhoods bring everything from cardboard and mixed paper to bottles and cans; some recycling centers in Colorado also run electronics or yard-waste programs seasonally.

The site looks like a modest municipal lot with an entrance booth and several large bins and containers visible from the drive. Pull up to the booth first, then follow the lane markings to the recycling bays; the bins are easy to spot and usually grouped by material type. There’s often a scale or weigh station near the entrance and vehicles line up more on weekends and during spring cleanup. Expect to walk short distances between your vehicle and the containers and to sort or consolidate items before dropping them off.

Before You Go

  • Flatten and bundle cardboard ahead of time so it fits neatly in the card-board container and takes less time unloading.
  • Load recyclables into clear or open bins in the vehicle for faster unloading; keep glass separate and wrapped to avoid breakage.
  • Avoid peak weekend hours if possible-late weekday mornings or early afternoons tend to be much quieter and quicker.
