Recycling in Little Rock, Arkansas

Little Rock runs its own curbside garbage and recycling collection through the Public Works Solid Waste Division, with recycling picked up every other week in a city-issued cart. The city is also part of the Regional Recycling and Waste Reduction District, which serves Pulaski County and operates the Green Station drop-off network for electronics, household hazardous waste, and glass. Arkansas has no bottle deposit law, so cans and bottles carry no redemption value here and recycling is purely a curbside or drop-off choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can go in my Little Rock curbside recycling cart?

The city organizes curbside recycling around what it calls the Core Four: plastics, paper and cardboard, metals, and glass. Recycling is collected bi-weekly, and the cart should be placed at the curb with at least three feet of clearance on either side by 7 a.m. on your scheduled day. If you are not sure an item qualifies, the city's guidance is simple: when in doubt, leave it out, since non-accepted items can contaminate the whole load.

Does Little Rock recycle glass curbside, or does it need to go somewhere else?

Glass is one of the Core Four categories accepted in the standard curbside recycling cart in Little Rock, a point the Regional Recycling District has actively promoted with 'emptied glass bottles and jars are accepted in your curbside recycling cart' messaging. Residents also have the option to drop off empty glass bottles and jars at any Green Station, at the Pulaski County Public Works Service Center on Brown Street (a 24/7 glass-only site), or at Epic Glass Recycling locations around the area.

Where can I take household hazardous waste and old electronics in Little Rock?

The Regional Recycling District operates a Green Station at 2000 S. Thayer Street in Little Rock, open Monday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and the last Saturday of each month from 7 a.m. to noon. It accepts electronics such as computers, TVs, printers, and phones (hard drives are securely destroyed), plus household hazardous waste like fertilizer, herbicides, pesticides, used motor oil, used antifreeze, and used gasoline, along with household batteries, fluorescent bulbs, and empty aerosol cans. The Green Station does not take paint, tires, ammunition, explosives, fuel tanks, or regular household trash, and it serves residential households only, not businesses.

How does bulky item and yard waste pickup work in Little Rock?

Yard waste is collected weekly, the business day after your regular garbage pickup, with leaves and grass bagged under 30 gallons and limbs kept under six feet long and six inches thick, stacked at the curb. Bulky items too large for the garbage cart, like furniture, large appliances, and mattresses, can be scheduled through 311, and the first four bulky pickups each calendar year are free, with additional pickups billed at $25 for two cubic yards. Construction debris, automotive parts, liquid paint, tires, and electronics are not accepted through bulky pickup and have to go through separate channels like the landfill or a Green Station.

Does Arkansas have a bottle deposit, and how does that affect recycling in Little Rock?

No. Arkansas is not a bottle bill state, so there is no deposit or redemption value on cans and bottles here, unlike states such as Michigan or California. That means recycling in Little Rock relies entirely on curbside collection and drop-off programs like the Green Stations rather than any cash-back incentive, and scrap value for aluminum cans mostly comes down to whether someone chooses to collect and sell them by weight to a local scrap buyer instead of recycling them.

Recycling tips for Little Rock

  • •Put glass bottles and jars right in your curbside cart, empty and rinsed. Little Rock is one of the few nearby cities where glass does not need a separate trip.
  • •Set your recycling cart out by 7 a.m. on pickup day and remember collection is bi-weekly, not weekly, so check the city's interactive recycling map if you are unsure which week is yours.
  • •For old electronics, TVs, and hard drives, skip the trash and take them to the Green Station at 2000 S. Thayer Street. Hard drives are destroyed on site, which matters if you are disposing of a work computer.
  • •Save your free bulky item pickups. Little Rock gives residents four no-charge bulky or appliance pickups per calendar year before the $25 fee kicks in, so bundle large items into as few pickup requests as possible.
  • •Batteries need sorting before you drop them off. AA, AAA, C, and D batteries can go in one bag at the Green Station, but 9-volt batteries must be taped on the terminals and bagged separately to prevent fires; rechargeable, lithium, and car batteries are not accepted there at all.
