(973) 256-2596

Woodland Park Recycling Center at 901 McBride Ave is the neighborhood spot for dropping off household recyclables. Locals use it for the usual paper, cardboard, glass, metals and many common plastics that community recycling centers take. It’s the kind of place people visit when cleaning out the garage or staying on top of weekly recycling.

Think of a modest, working yard rather than a showroom - outdoor bins, roll-off containers and concrete pads are common at places like this. There’s typically an entrance booth and a scale area, so plan to pull in, sort by material and then unload at the appropriate container. Traffic can back up on weekend mornings or during spring cleanups, so the line and the unload process move slower then. Bring something to cover or tie down loose items in a truck or roof rack so nothing blows out while waiting.

Before You Go

  • Sort and flatten cardboard and group like materials in advance to speed unloading; loose mixed loads take longer to handle.
  • Use a tarp or straps for loose items in a pickup bed and put small pieces in bins or boxes so they don’t spill when carrying them to the drop-off.
  • Avoid late-morning weekends in spring and early summer if possible-those times get the longest lines and the slowest turnover.
