Lincoln Recycling

Lincoln Recycling is the city recycling center on Theresa Street that folks from town and nearby farms drop off recyclables at. People bring everything from household cardboard and bottles to bulk clean metal and sometimes electronics, depending on the program. It’s the kind of place locals swing by during cleanup days or when a pickup pile gets too big for curbside.

There’s typically a simple entrance with a small booth or gate area where vehicles line up before unloading; expect to pull up slowly and follow staff or signage to the proper container. Recycling centers usually have rows of large bins and compactors for paper, cardboard, glass, plastics and metals, plus separate spots for items like e-waste or appliances if those programs are offered. The site is more industrial than tidy-gravel or paved driveways, heavy equipment moving loads, and a lot of stacked bales or pallets. Weekends and spring cleanup can get busy, so short waits at the booth or at drop-off points are common.
