O&G Milford Recycling Center

1125 Oronoque Rd Milford CT 06461 USA

This O&G Industries yard on Oronoque Road in Milford is an aggregate materials and concrete-recycling location, part of the company's Quarries & Recycling division. It is not a household drop-off center. Instead, it is a construction-materials supplier that produces and sells crushed stone, sand, and recycled aggregate to contractors, builders, and the public. A large share of the inventory is recycled: reclaimed concrete and asphalt are crushed and screened into recycled process material in 3/4-inch, 1-1/4-inch, and 3-inch grades (including a DOT grade), plus recycled screenings and native fill. The yard also carries virgin products such as 3/8-inch, 3/4-inch, and 1-1/4-inch stone, along with mason and concrete sand. The Milford location is open Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 4 PM. Because aggregate pricing, availability, and hours can shift seasonally, it is best to call ahead for current material and to confirm whether they can accept clean concrete or asphalt for recycling.
