Durango Recycle Center & Drop-Off
Residents and businesses can drop-off certain recyclable materials at the Durango Recycle Center throughout the week. See the information below for accepted materials, rates, and collection hours.
Not sure what is accepted where? Use the “What Goes Where?” Wizard tool to search for the best disposal option for all kinds of materials.
For safety, a maximum of two cars will be allowed in the drop off area at one time. To ensure proper social distancing between customers and employees, only one person will be allowed out of the vehicle to dispose of recycle material.
The Durango Transfer Station collects landfill waste drop-off and is operated by a separate private operator.
