Rocky Hill Recycling Department

Small town recycling center in Rocky Hill used by residents and small drop-offs. Located on Old Main Street, it handles household recyclables and runs programs aimed at keeping stuff out of landfills. People bring everything from curbside-type materials to occasional electronics or bulky recyclables during special collections.

Drive in past the entrance booth and find places to pull up for different streams; there’s limited space so backing up a trailer can be tight. Expect rows of big bins and roll-offs, with signage on the containers indicating common categories like paper, cardboard, glass, plastics and metal; special collection days often handle electronics or household hazardous items. Vehicles usually pull up to the appropriate container and unload themselves; traffic can build up on weekend mornings and spring cleanup days. Because Connecticut sends waste through transfer stations or out of state, towns often have permit or ID requirements for resident use, so have proof of residency ready.
