(405) 949-7563A city recycling center in northwest Oklahoma City that sees both residential and small commercial drop-offs. Locals use it for getting cardboard, paper, cans and bottles out of the trash and onto the right piles.
The site looks like an industrial yard with large roll-off containers and open transfer areas rather than a neat retail lot. Pull up to the entrance and someone or signage will direct where to unload; expect to drive slowly through the property and stop at drop points for different materials. There are separate containers or bays for common recyclables such as cardboard, mixed paper, and containers, and loads are typically sorted by the person dropping them off. Weekends and spring-cleanup times are noticeably busier, so queues can form at peak times.
