Recycling in Reno, Nevada

WM (Waste Management) runs curbside trash and recycling for Reno on a weekly trash, biweekly recycling schedule, and the closest landfill is the Lockwood Regional Landfill about 10 miles east of town in Storey County. Reno also has two WM transfer stations, on Commercial Row and in Stead, plus an Eco-Center for residents without curbside service. Glass bottles and jars go right in the blue recycling cart here, no separate drop-off needed, which is not the case in a lot of Nevada counties.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I put in my curbside recycling bin in Reno?

WM's Reno program accepts aluminum and steel cans, glass bottles and jars, paper, cardboard, and plastic containers in a single-stream cart, plus plastic and paper to-go cups as of a recent program update. Everything should be emptied of food and liquid and placed loose in the cart. Recycling is picked up every two weeks (an odd-week or even-week schedule depending on your address), not weekly like trash.

Can I recycle glass in Reno, and does it go in the curbside bin?

Yes. Unlike many Nevada counties where glass is a separate drop-off item, Reno's WM curbside cart accepts glass bottles and jars directly. If you don't have curbside recycling service, WM's Eco-Center and its Commercial Row recycling drop-off (1391 E. Commercial Row) also take mixed recyclables including glass.

Where is the landfill or transfer station for Reno residents?

Reno's regional landfill is the Lockwood Regional Landfill at 2700 E. Mustang Road in Sparks, NV, operated by WM, open Monday through Saturday 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Reno also has two transfer stations for closer drop-off: the Commercial Row Transfer Station at 1390 E. Commercial Row and the Stead Transfer Station at 13890 Mt. Anderson St.

How do I get rid of household hazardous waste or electronics in Reno?

WM accepts household hazardous waste for an additional fee at designated drop-off locations, call ahead for accepted materials, and Reno-area customers also get an annual HHW disposal voucher mailed with their WM bill (July for Reno accounts) good for a free drop-off through a WM partner. Electronics and household hazardous waste should never go in a trash or recycling cart. Keep Truckee Meadows Beautiful (KTMB) maintains an online guide to additional local recycling and e-waste drop-off options for Washoe County.

Is there a bottle deposit or can I turn in scrap metal for cash in Reno?

Nevada has no statewide bottle deposit or can-redemption program, so you won't get cash back for bottles or cans here. Scrap metal is a different story: Nevada law (NRS 647) requires scrap metal processors to record every purchase, copy the seller's valid photo ID, and pay by check or electronic transfer for any purchase of $150 or more, so bring identification when you sell scrap.

Reno Recycling Tips

  • •Rinse and empty glass bottles, cans, and containers before putting them in the recycling cart. Food or liquid residue is one of the most common reasons a load gets rejected.
  • •Never bag your recyclables. WM does not accept bagged recyclables in Reno, plastic bags jam the sorting equipment, so pour items loosely into the cart and put plastic bags/film in the trash instead.
  • •Check whether your address is on the odd-week or even-week recycling schedule. Trash is weekly but recycling only comes every other week, so it's easy to miss a cycle if you don't know your week.
  • •If you're overflowing your trash cart, WM mails Reno customers 20 pre-paid stickers a year for extra bagged waste (up to 4'x4'x4' or 50 lbs) set out next to the cart. Waste without a sticker won't get picked up.
  • •For anything that isn't accepted curbside, like electronics, paint, or larger loads, take it to the Commercial Row or Stead transfer station rather than the Lockwood landfill directly if you just need to drop off a car trunk's worth of material.
