Shreena Patidar (5/5 stars, a year ago): Fantastic resource for Kingwood and surrounding areas. The new plastic recycling program accepts ALL plastics #1-6 including soft plastic bags AND styrofoam! Because of this I am rarely placing anything into my trash bin. Grateful to have this resource in my community.

Abi Rey (5/5 stars, 2 years ago): Just moved from another state and had a lot of moving boxes. So I decided to stop by and recycled a lot of moving boxes. I was surprised on how organized and clean it was. There are pictures on each recycling container of what is acceptable to recycle. I would suggest stopping by an hour before closing because you can park in front of the container and recycle your items. By that time is slow and not a lot of people recycling where you would cause traffic. It makes things easier when you have so many items and not having to go back and forth. The recycling containers are on the left side when you come in. Easy to spot them! you won't miss them I promise! Ah and is all free! From the moment you come in the metro area to the way out of there. Pretty cool and the rewarding feeling you get after for helping the planet is also amazing!

Shelley Tyler (5/5 stars, 3 years ago): The recycling roll off trailers are at the Kingwood Metro Park and Ride monthly. It is the first Saturday of every month. They are located at the very end of the parking lot. You are able to recycle brown glass in one all other colors of glass in the next plastics are in the next 3 trailers. The next trailer takes aluminum card board and news paper in the last two or three I forgot exactly how many. They have a location away from the roll off trailers to leave electronics... such as lap tops household printers televisions desk top computers etc. There is no trash receptacle nor bin to leave plastic bags. You must dispose of these elsewhere.
