City of Nixa Recycling Center

This is the City of Nixa Recycling Center, a small municipal spot most people in town use to keep recyclables out of the landfill. Neighbors drop off household paper, cardboard, common plastics, glass and metal here, and sometimes there are special collection events for things like electronics or yard waste. It feels like a practical, no-frills place used by local residents and pickup trucks alike.

The site is compact rather than industrial - expect drive-up lanes with several large containers or roll-offs for different materials. There is usually a booth or gate area near the entrance where vehicles briefly stop; larger loads often have to pull forward for a staff check or weighing. Containers for paper and cardboard tend to be grouped together, with mixed containers for bottles and cans nearby, and a separate area for bulk items when allowed. Weekends and spring-cleanup days can create a line of cars and trucks, so plan extra time if coming then.
