Recycling in Adrian, Michigan

Stevens Disposal collects Adrian's trash every Tuesday and co-mingled recycling every other Tuesday in a 96-gallon cart. The charge appears on the summer tax bill, so new residents need no sign-up. Lenawee County runs the recycling drop-off site at 307 N. River Street, at Race Street, open seven days a week. The city runs a yard waste compost site on Oakwood Avenue.

Frequently Asked Questions

What day is trash and recycling pickup in Adrian MI?

Trash goes out every Tuesday. Recycling runs every other Tuesday on two alternating routes split at Maumee Street, and it goes loose in the 96-gallon Stevens Disposal cart with no sorting. Set carts out after 6:00 PM Monday and by 7:00 AM Tuesday, and pull them back by 7:00 AM Wednesday. A holiday on Monday or Tuesday pushes pickup to Wednesday. Report a miss to Public Works at 517-264-4888.

Where is the Adrian recycling drop-off site?

The Lenawee County Drop Off Site is at 307 N. River Street, Adrian, MI 49221, at the corner of Race Street. It is open Monday to Friday 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM and Saturday and Sunday 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. It closes on Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year's Day. Plastic bags and Styrofoam are refused, and the site serves Lenawee County households, not businesses.

How do I get rid of a couch or appliance in Adrian?

Buy a $10 sticker per item at City Hall and put it on the item, and the city tells Stevens Disposal to collect it. The sticker covers anything over 50 pounds or not in a bag, including furniture, televisions and computer monitors. Appliances need the Freon removed before tagging. Stevens Disposal prices bricks, drywall and other demolition debris directly at 1-800-779-0344.

Where can Adrian residents drop off yard waste?

The city compost site on Oakwood Avenue, just past Oakwood Cemetery, takes leaves, grass, garden debris, brush and branches. It opens Tuesdays from noon to 7:00 PM and Saturdays from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM, May 2 through December 5. Residents who pay for city trash collection get one free window sticker per address at City Hall. Empty yard waste out of plastic bags before you leave; paper yard bags can go in as is.

What can't go in Adrian's trash cart?

Stevens Disposal leaves behind yard waste, paint, tires, auto parts, motor oil, pesticides, liquids, building materials, concrete, rocks, metal pipes, dead animals and hazardous materials. Pickup is limited to what fits in the 96-gallon cart. You cannot let a neighbor set out waste that did not come from their own property. Call Lenawee Solid Waste at 517-264-4511 about hazardous items.

Does Adrian pick up bulk trash at the curb?

Only every other year. The city skipped citywide curbside bulk pickup in 2026 and schedules the next one for 2027. Until then, buy a $10 tag at City Hall so Stevens Disposal collects the item, or haul it to the compost site off Oakwood Avenue during its Tuesday and Saturday hours.
