About this center

Emmet County Recycling runs the Pleasantview Road Drop-Off Center and the Waste Transfer Station on the same Harbor Springs site, plus 13 recycling drop-off sites around the county. Most of the remote sites stay open around the clock for paper, boxes, bags, and mixed containers. The Pleasantview Road center handles bulkier loads in its Bulky Materials Recycling area, including scrap metal and rubble such as concrete, brick, and asphalt, with a gatehouse check before unloading. It is open weekdays 8am to 4pm and Saturday 8am to 3pm. Asphalt shingles go to the landfill at the transfer station while shingle recycling is suspended, and the county also runs a food scrap program and Material Recovery Facility tours.

Sure would be great if they took small batteries at the curb however they feel this not necessary and it would involve a little change can not do that.

This place is a crap shoot. Prices fluctuate tremendously from person to person and same with their attitudes. Good luck! Hopefully you get one of their friendly and helpful employees.
