Lunenburg Disposal & Recycling Center on Landfill Road is the local spot people use to drop off household recyclables and small cleanup loads. Folks from town and the surrounding rural areas bring paper, cardboard, glass, plastics, metals and yard debris here; centers like this may also host occasional special drop-off events for electronics or tires. It’s a practical, no-frills recycling center rather than a public-facing recycling depot with frills.
Pull in and pass a scale and an entrance booth where vehicles usually pause to sort or be accounted for before proceeding. The recycling bins and piles are clustered in their own part of the site, with heavy equipment and gravel surfaces nearby, so be prepared for dust and uneven ground. Weekends and spring cleanup times can get backed up, so lines at the gate are common then. Bring a clear plan for what’s being dropped off - separating cardboard, metal, and yard waste beforehand saves time.
