About this center

The City of Auburn's Recycling Drop-Off Center is a municipal facility open 24 hours a day, year round, operated by Auburn Environmental Services. Auburn became the first municipality in Alabama to offer curbside recycling in 1987, and established this drop-off center alongside a compost demonstration in 1999 so residents can recycle at any time. The city also runs single-stream curbside recycling for garbage-service subscribers and holds a document shredding event twice a year. Note: during construction of the Boykin Donahue Campus project (expected to finish fall 2026) the drop-off center has temporarily moved to 640 Mary Brooks Drive.

They moved it about a mile away. Just put in "RecycleAuburn" into the destination box in google maps & it will direct uou to it. It isn't as nice (no greenery or trees) as the old location & I don't see a battery recycling station either. But everything else is there: cardboard glass plastics 1-7 magazines/catalogs cans etc.

I used to love coming here to drop off my recyclables but it seems that it's now closed. I saw a sign before starting a new location but I don't remember the address it said.
