New Mexico Recycling Coalition

A small recycling center out on W Brasher Road that folks in Roswell use to keep common recyclables out of the landfill. Neighbors drop off things like cardboard, paper, cans, bottles and occasional electronics or bulky metal items at places like this.

Pull into the driveway off 3006 W Brasher Rd and find a compact site with outdoor bins and larger roll-off containers rather than a big warehouse. Expect to sort materials as you go - cardboard in one pile, mixed paper or plastics in another - and to walk a short distance from where a vehicle can be parked. There’s typically a booth or entrance point where directions are given and vehicles are waved through, and the ground is mostly gravel or packed dirt with a few marked spots for dropping things off. Weekends and spring cleanup times tend to be busier, so lines can form and the place can feel a bit chaotic.
