Oklahoma City runs curbside trash, recycling, and bulky waste through OKC Utilities. The city's naming can trip people up: your trash cart is the Big Blue cart, and your recycling cart is the Big Green cart. Unlike many cities, OKC does accept glass bottles and jars in the curbside recycling cart. The city also operates a permanent Household Hazardous Waste Collection Center and holds two Free Landfill Days each year for trash customers.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Oklahoma City recycle glass?
Yes. OKC accepts empty, clean, and dry glass bottles and jars in your curbside recycling cart (the Big Green cart). The city does not accept window or automotive glass, mirrors, ceramics, heat-resistant kitchen glass such as bakeware and measuring cups, wine glasses, light bulbs, or nail polish bottles.
What can I put in my OKC recycling cart?
The Big Green recycling cart takes household and office paper, cardboard (flattened, clean, and free of grease), glass bottles and jars, aluminum and steel cans, aluminum foil and bakeware, plastic bottles and jugs, and paper cartons like milk, nut milk, and juice cartons. Keep plastic bags, film, garden hoses, clothes hangers, and clothing out of the cart, since they are treated as contamination.
Where do I take electronics and computers in Oklahoma City?
The Household Hazardous Waste Collection Center does not accept computer equipment, TVs, or microwaves. For computers and peripherals, OKC points residents to the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality computer recycling program, and the city's annual Special Collection Event each spring at the State Fairgrounds accepts computers and peripherals along with tires, medications, and ammunition.
How does bulky waste pickup work in OKC?
Bulky waste is included in your monthly bundled trash and recycling service. Pickup begins the first Monday of every month using two three-day windows tied to your assigned collection date. Set items loose at the curb by 6 a.m. on your scheduled day, no more than three days in advance, with five feet of clearance on all sides. The first four cubic yards are included; larger piles get tagged and billed. Bagged waste is not collected in bulky pickup and must go in your Big Blue cart or to a Free Landfill Day.
Where do I drop off household hazardous waste in Oklahoma City?
OKC operates a permanent Household Hazardous Waste Collection Center at 1621 S. Portland Ave. (73108), phone (405) 682-7038. It takes items like paint, cleaners, automotive products, antifreeze, gasoline, pesticides, and herbicides. It is free to Oklahoma City residents, but you must bring your City water bill as proof of residency.
Recycling tips for Oklahoma City
•Remember the cart colors are reversed from what you might expect: Big Blue is your trash cart and Big Green is your recycling cart.
•Give bottles, cans, and jars a quick rinse and let them dry before recycling; heavily soiled containers count as contamination.
•The HHW Collection Center at 1621 S. Portland Ave. has a free Swap Shop where usable leftover products can be picked up by other residents.
•Watch for OKC's two Free Landfill Days, typically held in May and September, to clear out extra trash and bulky items at no cost with your OKC Utilities trash account.
•Save tires, computers, medications, and ammunition for the annual Special Collection Event each spring at the State Fairgrounds, since these are not taken at the HHW center.
