St Peters City Recycle is the local recycling center for residents of St. Peters and nearby neighborhoods. People bring curbside overflow, boxes from moves, and seasonal yard cleanups here. It’s the kind of place used by homeowners, DIYers, and anyone trying to keep stuff out of the landfill.
Drive up to 131 Ecology Dr and look for a clearly marked entrance and a small booth or gate area where vehicles stop briefly. The site is centered around several large outdoor containers and sorting areas for common recyclables like paper, cardboard, glass, plastics, metals, and often electronics or yard waste programs at many centers. Pull-up spots for cars and trucks are usually obvious, with larger roll-off bins set back a bit on concrete pads and a mix of covered and open-air sections. Weekends and spring cleanup times typically see more traffic, so expect a line or some waiting if dropping off during peak times.

Before You Go
- Break down boxes and bag loose paper/packaging to save space and speed up unloading.
- Bring gloves and a tote or tub for small items so nothing gets blown away while sorting at the bins.
- Load heavier items toward the back of the vehicle for safer unloading and easier access to bins or platforms.
