Tree Top Recycling, Inc. is a local recycling center in Boise that people drop by to keep common materials out of the landfill. Neighbors bringing household recyclables and light clean-up loads use this spot regularly. It feels like a working yard rather than a showroom, helpful for anyone clearing out cardboard, bottles, cans or mixed plastics.
The site looks like a typical town recycling center: parking for cars and small trailers, open-top containers or roll-off bins, and a small office or booth near the entry. Pull into a lane, sort materials into the labeled containers, and then exit-don't be surprised if there are a few trucks or trailers on site. Weekends, especially during seasonal cleanups, tend to be busier and lines can form. Keep materials reasonably separated and secure in the truck or trailer so things don't blow out while driving through the yard.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring items sorted as much as possible (paper/cardboard separate from glass and metals) to move through faster.
- Strap down loose loads and have boxes flattened to save space in bins and avoid dropped debris on the road.
- Plan for a bit of waiting on weekend mornings; midweek visits often have fewer vehicles and quicker drop-offs.
