RECYCLING OPTIONS IN INDIANAPOLIS

The City of Indianapolis offers Marion County residents TWO options for recycling typical household materials:

Free Drop-Off Recycling Program - Recycle Indianapolis

The Recycle Indianapolis program is a partnership between the City of Indianapolis and Keep Indianapolis Beautiful. This is a free program, where residents can drop-off the following recyclable materials: steel and aluminum food and beverage cans, empty aerosol cans, glass, #1 and #2 plastics (no plastic shopping bags please!), newspapers and magazines. In 2008, residents recycled nearly 13 million pounds of materials through this program!

There are 28 drop-off sites around Marion County for residents to drop off recyclables.

It is on a subscription basis and has a nominal monthly fee.  For more information or to sign up, please call the Mayor's Action Center at 317-327-4622 or contact these local companies direct:
