Waste Management - Warwick Transfer & Recycling Center

65 O'Keefe Lane, Warwick, RI 02886

(401) 941-8204

Local transfer and recycling center at 65 O'Keefe Lane in Warwick that people use when curbside bins won't cut it or for larger household drop-offs. Neighbors typically bring cardboard, paper, glass, plastics and metal; many centers also run periodic programs for electronics or bulky-item collections.

The site looks industrial - concrete bays, large roll-off containers and vehicle lanes rather than a storefront. Many transfer centers have an entrance booth and a scale, so plan for a short stop at the gate and another stop before leaving. Recycling bins are often grouped together to one side, so it helps to have materials sorted before pulling in. Weekends, especially spring-cleanup days, get backed up and lines can form.

Before You Go

  • Pre-sort and flatten cardboard, bundle paper, and rinse containers; being organized speeds the whole visit.
  • Secure and cover loose loads in trucks or trailers - it keeps the site cleaner and unloading quicker.
  • Aim for weekday mornings if possible; that usually avoids the weekend crowds that form during seasonal cleanups.
