The site is on Evergreen Road and looks like a modest county facility rather than a commercial depot. Pull up to an entrance booth where attendants will direct vehicles; after that there are collection bins and concrete pads for sorting materials. Common curbside-style recyclables - paper, cardboard, glass, metal and many plastics - are handled here, and the center also runs occasional special collection programs at certain times of year. Winter can change how things operate, so the layout may have temporary lanes or limited access when snow piles up.
