Other notes

  • Recycling depot, not a household-trash dump. No furniture, tires, dirt, wood, paint, antifreeze, pesticides, fluorescent lights, mercury switches, fire extinguishers or closed cylinders/tanks.
  • Accepts listed metal goods, specified appliances and electronics including computers, monitors, TVs, phones, printers, cables and microwave ovens. TVs or radios in large wooden cabinets are not accepted.
  • Used motor oil is accepted during depot hours but must not be mixed with antifreeze or other fluids.
  • Battery wording differs within the same page: the battery section says vehicle batteries only, while the electronics list includes laptop batteries and UPS backup-unit batteries. Call before bringing those batteries rather than assuming they are accepted.
  • The appliance paragraph covers both pickup and drop-off and gives a $20 refrigerant-removal fee. Confirm how to pay when dropping off.
  • Firewood may be available at the depot free on a first-come basis. Wood chips are at the separate greenhouse location at the foot of Lindbergh Boulevard, east of Glenwood Avenue.
