Wilton Recycling is the small recycling center on Munson Rd that locals use for household drop-offs. Neighbors bring the usual recyclables here, and there are sometimes special collection days for things like electronics or paint.
Drive in from Munson Rd into a compact yard with a single entrance lane; at small town centers like this there is often a booth and a scale so plan to pause briefly. Bins for paper, cardboard, glass, plastics and metal are usually clustered together, so having things pre-sorted makes unloading quicker. The lot is typically gravel or packed dirt and can be a bit tight to maneuver if a truck is already backing up. Expect lines on weekends and during spring clean-up seasons, when wait times can stretch out.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Flatten and bundle cardboard before you come-stacked flat boxes make the whole process much faster.
- Sort materials into separate bags or bins at home and keep glass apart to avoid breakage and spills during unloading.
- Bring gloves and a tarp or straps for loose loads, and allow extra time if dropping off on a weekend or during seasonal clean-up.
