Recycling Center

Marshall Street Recycling Center

255-269 Marshall St, Holliston, MA 01746

Small-town recycling center off Marshall Street that locals use to drop off household recyclables and bulk items. People from Holliston and nearby towns come here when the curbside limit is too small or for items not picked up at the curb. It feels like the kind of place where there’s always a line on weekend mornings and a handful of big open-top containers to sort into.

Expect a modest site with an entrance area and a few large bins and compactors visible from the road; it’s not a polished storefront but a working yard. Pull up to the entrance and follow the flow of traffic - vehicles usually move slowly between drop-off bays. Material separation is the norm in Massachusetts, so plan on placing paper, cardboard, metals, and plastics in different bins rather than tossing everything together. Weekends and spring cleanup days tend to be the busiest, so there can be short waits and a bit of queuing.

Before You Go

  • Sort and bundle materials at home - flattened cardboard and tied-up bags make the process quicker and take up less space in the car.
  • Bring gloves and something to secure loose items; the ground can be gravelly and some containers sit a bit higher than a normal trunk.
  • Try to go early on weekdays or first thing in the morning on weekends to avoid longer lines during peak cleanup times.
