Lubbock City Recycling

**City of Lubbock Recycling Centers** operate at multiple locations including Southside, Northside, South Milwaukee, North Quaker, and various satellite locations like United Supermarkets and Market Street. They accept plastics Type 1 and 2, clear, color, and opaque, along with tin, aluminum, newspaper, computer paper, and cardboard. Operating hours are Monday to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., closed on city holidays. Specific instructions include placing recyclables in the proper bin, with a reminder that items not accepted should be placed in the trash dumpster to avoid contamination. The centers do not accept plastic bags due to recycling equipment issues and encourage the use of reusable bags. Violators misusing trash dumpsters for household or business garbage will face legal consequences under Texas laws. Additional satellite locations are available 24/7, allowing for drop-offs of the accepted materials.
