Stark-Tuscarawas-Wayne Recycling District

Stark-Tuscarawas-Wayne Recycling District in Bolivar is the place neighbors use when the curbside bin won't cut it. Locals tend to bring the usual recyclables-paper and cardboard, glass, metal and many plastics-and the district sometimes runs seasonal collection events for things like electronics or household hazardous items.

A small drive-up office or booth near the entrance usually directs traffic; pull up slowly and follow whoever’s guiding cars. Recycling bins and drop-off bays are typically grouped just past that booth, with separate spots for different materials so unloading doesn't get messy. Many Ohio recycling sites have a scale and charge by weight, so be prepared to stop again on the way out. Expect lines on weekends and during spring cleanup, when folks from around the county show up.
