Morristown Recycling Center

90 Lake Rd, Morristown, NJ 07960

(973) 644-4382

Small recycling center at 90 Lake Rd that locals use for household cleanouts and smaller contractor loads. It’s the sort of place neighbors swing by after a weekend sort-through, so expect a line during busy times.

There’s usually an entrance booth and a scale at centers like this, so plan on stopping briefly to check in and out. Bins and roll-off containers are grouped by material - paper and cardboard in one spot, glass and metals nearby, with larger containers for bulky items - and signs point the way. The lot is practical rather than pretty: concrete pads, big metal containers and often chain-link fencing, so wear sturdy shoes and be ready to lift. Weekends, especially spring cleanup season, tend to be the busiest times.

Before You Go

  • Flatten and bundle cardboard at home to save space and speed unloading.
  • Sort materials in the car before getting there - keeping glass separate from paper cuts down on spills and broken items.
  • Bring gloves and a friend for heavy or awkward loads; having a plan for how to lift and move big pieces makes the visit much quicker.
