Llano Recycling Center is the local spot in Llano for dropping off recyclables and keeping stuff out of the landfill. Folks from town and nearby ranches use it when doing household cleanups or clearing out a truckload after a project.
Think small-town scale: a compact site with places to pull up, separate containers or bays for different materials, and a small office or booth near the entrance. At recycling centers in Texas, common materials that are taken include paper and cardboard, plastics, glass, and metals, and some centers run special programs for electronics or bulky items. Traffic can back up on weekends and during spring cleanup season, so there may be a short wait. Vehicles usually pull up to the appropriate bin or bay to unload, then leave once materials are in place.

Before You Go
- Sort materials at home into piles (paper/cardboard, plastics, metal, glass) so unloading is quicker and less awkward at the bins.
- Bring straps, boxes, or a tarp to keep a truckload secure while driving and to make moving items easier when unloading.
- Avoid the busiest times by going early on weekdays or before the weekend rush; spring cleanup weekends tend to be the worst for lines.
