City of Killeen Recycling Center is the municipal recycling drop-off for Killeen residents, sitting on E Avenue F. Neighbors use it for curbside overflow, cleanouts and anything they want kept out of the landfill.
Pull into a modest lot with clearly marked lanes and places to pull up beside the containers. Expect a cluster of large bins and possibly covered areas for cardboard and mixed recyclables; vehicles typically drive up next to the appropriate container to unload. Small signs usually indicate where to put common items like paper, plastic and metal, and weekend lines can form during busy times such as spring cleanup. It’s a hands-on sort of place - bring something to help lift or bundle items if needed.
