Recycle Indianapolis Program Drop-off Locations

The Recycle Indianapolis Program is a partnership between the City of Indianapolis and Keep Indianapolis Beautiful. In 2008, residents recycled nearly 13 million pounds of material through this program.  The program accepts steel and aluminum food and beverage cans, empty aerosol cans, green, brown and clear glass, #1 and #2 plastics, and newspapers.

There are 28 sites around the city available for residents to drop off recyclables.  Click here for Recycle Indianapolis  locations and accepted materials.
