St. Simons Recycling Drop

Small, no-nonsense recycling center on St. Simons Island that locals use when they want to keep stuff out of the landfill. Neighbors drop off household recyclables and common bulky items here rather than hauling them to a distant transfer station. The place feels like a practical town spot, not a flashy facility.

Drive up to a modest entrance with a booth and a few concrete pads and roll-off bins nearby; it’s easy to tell where to pull up once past the entrance. Common recyclables are sorted into separate containers - cardboard, mixed cans and bottles, and likely some metal and yard-type collection areas. There’s open space for backing a truck up to a bin, and the whole site looks more like a working yard than a park. Weekends and spring cleanup bring extra cars, so lines can form during busy times.
