Litchfield Recycling Center

Small, practical recycling center in Litchfield that residents and small haulers use to drop off common recyclables. A straightforward local spot for getting cardboard, plastics, glass, and mixed paper out of the house and kept away from the landfill system Connecticut relies on.

Drive in to a modest paved lot with a small entrance booth and places to pull up and sort materials. Covered collection bays and large roll-off bins handle bulk cardboard and mixed containers, while smaller labeled bins are clustered nearby for glass and paper. Traffic can back up on weekend mornings and during spring cleanup, so anticipate a short wait if it’s a busy day. There’s usually a clear flow: stop at the booth, pull up to the appropriate bin, unload, and then exit past the scale area where weight is noted for some loads.
