Waste Management - Port Newark Recycling Center

A working recycling center in Newark that locals use to drop off household recyclables and larger loads that don't fit at curbside. People from nearby neighborhoods and small contractors swing by when they need something more than the blue bin can handle.

Drive up to a guarded entrance with a small booth and a lane where vehicles queue; there's a scale and traffic flow that makes you stop twice if the site uses weight checks. The lot is big and industrial - piles of baled cardboard, dumpsters, and a few covered bays for different materials. Recycling stations are marked and usually clustered to the right of the entrance; expect forklifts and roll-off trucks moving around so keep to the marked lanes.
