Drop
Off Recycling Program
The Department
of Solid Waste Management operates a Drop-Off
Recycling Program and the primary goal is to conserve natural
resources and to reduce energy consumption by recycling
selected materials. Items eligible for recycling
are aluminum cans, steel cans, glass food and beverage containers,
plastics #1-#7, cardboard, junk mail, paper, magazines, and newspapers. For more details see our recycling guidelines page.
There are numerous recycling drop off site locations around Escambia County. The recycling
containers at the drop off sites are checked daily, Monday-Saturday.
Full collection containers are returned to the
Perdido Landfill to be emptied. The recyclables are
sorted and prepared for brookers and end users to be used products using post consumer content, thus completing the recycling loop. This is why it is important to buy recycled products.
Please join our recycling program
and be an active part of the Escambia County Integrated
Solid Waste Management System. Recyclables are collected
at the following locations throughout the county:
