Frequently Asked Questions
What are the hours at the Monongalia County Recycling Center on Olin Street?
The center at 34 Olin Street is open Monday through Friday from 7 am to 3:25 pm and is closed Saturday and Sunday. It serves residential users only. The Saturday recycling days are canceled indefinitely, and the posted holiday closure list is on moncountyrecycling.com.
Does the Mon County recycling center buy scrap metal or cans?
No. The center does not buy cans, scrap metal, or any other product. Anyone who wants payment for metal needs a scrap yard such as JB Recycling at 255 S Plant St.
Can I bring recyclables in a plastic bag to the Morgantown drop-off?
No. Plastic bags are no longer accepted at the Monongalia County center, so bring recyclables in a box or reusable container. Cardboard has to be flattened and broken down at the seams, and soiled pizza boxes are refused because grease and cheese contaminate the load.

Yes. Western Mon County Recycling at the Arnettsville Community Association, 4120 Fairmont Rd, takes drop-offs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The Marion County Solid Waste Authority services it, and it accepts source-separated recycling only, so you sort items into the separate bins on site.
When is household hazardous waste collection day in Morgantown?
The Morgantown Utility Board runs it on one Saturday morning each August at 278 Greenbag Road. It is open to Monongalia County residents with proof of residency, not businesses, with a limit of 5 gallons and 50 pounds per household. The event does not take latex paint, and MUB answers questions at (304) 292-8443.
Recycling tips for Morgantown
- •Plan around the 3:25 pm closing time on Olin Street, since the center shuts early on weekdays and has no Saturday hours.
- •Latex paint is refused at the August collection day, so dry it out and put it in the trash instead.
- •Flatten cardboard and break it down at the seams before the Olin Street trip.
- •Dropping off at Arnettsville means sorting in the bins there, so separate paper, plastic, and metal at home first.
