Recycling Center

SWA Home Chemical and Recycling Center

1810 Lantana Road, Lantana, FL 33462

(561) 697-2700

Small but busy recycling center just off Lantana Road that locals use to drop off household recyclables and home chemical items. Neighbors bring everything from curbside overflow to old paint cans and electronics, especially after yard work or storm cleanup. It’s the sort of place residents swing by when regular pickup won’t cover what needs to go.

Drive up to a booth at the entrance where traffic is directed; there’s usually a scale stop on the way out for larger loads. The recycling bins sit to the right past the entrance, and areas for things like yard trimmings or household chemicals are fenced-off piles or containers a short walk from the drop-off lane. Signs are simple and practical, and pickup queues form on weekends and after storms - be ready for a line during those times. Staff often point out where each type of item goes, so follow directions and have items separated as much as possible before pulling in.

Before You Go

  • Separate recyclables into boxes or bags before arrival to speed unloading - cardboard, mixed containers, and glass handled separately make a difference.
  • Bring items that need special handling (old paint, cleaners, batteries) in sturdy containers and keep lids on, since they tend to be directed to a specific chemical drop area.
  • Avoid peak times: early weekday mornings are usually quicker than weekend afternoons, and expect longer waits after heavy storms or community cleanup events.
