Temple Recycling & Disposal Facility, 706 Landfill Rd, Temple, 76501, Texas

Temple Recycling & Disposal Facility at 706 Landfill Rd is the local recycling center people from Temple and nearby parts of Bell County use for household recyclables and bigger clean loads. It’s the sort of place neighbors bring boxes, cans, bottles and stuff that won’t fit in curbside bins.

There’s a small entrance booth and a scale near the drive in, so pull up slowly and be ready to stop. The recycling bins and roll‑off containers are out in the yard just past the booth, with separate piles for different materials; the site looks more like a working landfill yard than a tidy storefront. Plan on walking items out to the appropriate container if they aren’t in a car you can back up close to. Weekends, especially during spring cleaning, tend to get backed up-lines and waiting are normal.

Before You Go

  • Sort and bundle materials at home before getting there: flattened cardboard, tied bundles of paper, and loose bottles separated makes the drop‑off go faster.
  • Bring gloves and something to cover loose loads; gravel and dust are common and glass can be messy to handle.
  • Avoid peak weekend times if possible; a weekday morning or early afternoon will usually move quicker.
