Trojan Recycling Inc

71 Forest St, Brockton, MA 02302

(508) 588-2332

Trojan Recycling is a recycling center on 71 Forest St in Brockton that serves residents and smaller haulers dropping off recyclables. Like other centers of this type, it typically handles paper, cardboard, glass, metals and many plastics, and some sites also run occasional programs for electronics or scrap metal drop-offs. The state oversees these facilities, so fees and accepted items can vary from place to place.

Expect a working yard with large roll-off bins and open lanes for pulling up; many centers have a small entrance booth and a scale that you pass on the way in and again on the way out. Loads are usually sorted into separate containers, so it helps to have boxes and glass separated before getting there. Lines can form on weekend mornings or during spring cleanup, and the lot can be dusty or muddy depending on weather. Look for posted signs and marked lanes when pulling in to figure out where to unload.

Before You Go

  • Sort items at home: flatten cardboard, bundle paper, and keep glass separate so unloading goes quicker and there’s less digging through the bins.
  • Bring gloves and a tarp or straps for loose loads-bins and trucks can be grimy and things shift in transit.
  • Aim for early arrival on weekends, allow extra time during spring cleanup season, and have ID or proof of residency handy if that’s required by local centers.
