Tempe was one of the first cities in the country to launch curbside recycling, and its blue bin still takes glass alongside cardboard, paper, plastic, and cans. What does not fit the bin has a dedicated home: the Household Products Collection Center at 1320 E. University Drive takes automotive fluids, electronics, appliances, paints, and pesticides from Tempe and Guadalupe residents with proof of residency. Zero Waste Day events cover the rest, including Styrofoam, shredded paper, and textiles.
Yes. Glass jars, jugs, and bottles are accepted in blue recycling bins, along with broken-down cardboard, paper and mail, plastic jars, jugs, bottles and caps, paper and plastic cups with straws and lids removed, and food and beverage cans.
Plastic bags, Styrofoam, shrink and bubble wrap, plastic utensils, paper towels, napkins and tissue, six-pack rings, padded mailing envelopes, stained glass, mirrors, construction materials, porcelain and ceramics, cereal box inserts, empty chemical containers, pet food bags, food waste or liquids, shredded paper, green waste, and appliances.
The HPCC at 1320 E. University Drive takes automotive products including motor oil and filters, antifreeze, brake, power steering and transmission fluid, gasoline, and tires other than tractor or semi; electronics and appliances including televisions, refrigerators, washers, dryers, computers, monitors, printers, water heaters, microwaves, stoves, dishwashers, A/C units, and anything that uses batteries or has a cord; household cleaning products; and paints and solvents.
No. The HPCC is permitted to receive residential items only, and that exclusion covers businesses operated from a Tempe residence. The city reserves the right to refuse any load it suspects is commercial or industrial waste.
Packaging chunks, blocks, and coolers that are firm rather than bendable can go to the HPCC or a Zero Waste Day event with proof of Tempe or Guadalupe residency. Plates, cups, trays, packing peanuts, and spongy foam cannot be recycled. Drop-off containers also exist at Earth Friendly Building Materials in Florence and Eco Building Systems in Peoria.
