The Miami County Recycling District offers many locations throughout the county for drop off of
Steel/ Aluminum Cans
Paper
Flattened Cardboard
FOOD GRADE Glass
Plastics 1 & 2
All drop off sites are for these items and these items ONLY.
Despite good intentions, nearly 1/3 of recyclables end up in the landfill due to food or hazardous waste contamination. The traditional recycling bins look like the one pictured above.

These sites are "single stream" which means there is no sorting of recyclable materials required. As long as the items meet the guidelines you can drop off at any of these locations.

Steel/ Aluminum Cans
Paper
Flattened Cardboard
FOOD GRADE Glass
Plastics 1 & 2
These are the ONLY items allowed in the recycling bins. Anything else can contaminate other recyclables, is a safety hazard to those sorting, or can damage equipment.
