SWA Home Chemical and Recycling Center

SWA Home Chemical and Recycling Center is a recycling center in Delray Beach that locals use to drop off household recyclables and certain bulky items. People from surrounding neighborhoods bring loads that they want kept out of the landfill, especially after yard cleanups or storm cleanups.

The property is on FL-7 and has the kind of drive-up layout common to county recycling centers: an entrance booth and a scale area where vehicles may be weighed. Recycling bins and separate collection areas sit past the entrance, with pull-up lanes for cars, trucks, and small trailers; expect to walk a short distance to the containers for some materials. Because Florida centers handle high volumes year-round, lines can form on weekend mornings and after storms, and there’s usually a bit more traffic during hurricane cleanup periods. Look for simple signage directing you to paper, cardboard, metal, and other common recycling drop-offs.
