Other notes
- This is a household recycling-container site, not a general dump, landfill or staffed hazardous-waste facility. Keep trash, electronics, appliances, tires, batteries, chemicals, clothing, hoses and scrap metal out of ordinary bins.
- The district flyer linked by local townships has a November 2023 upload path. It describes daylight access seven days a week, mixed recycling, paper/cardboard, metal cans/cups, glass bottles/jars, cartons and plastic bottles/jugs/tubs/cups. Local signs and site-specific exclusions take priority.
- Rinse containers, empty liquids, flatten boxes and fit all items inside containers. Do not leave material beside full bins. No plastic bags/film, foam, window glass, mirrors or drinking glasses.
- Special collection dates and prices belong to separate district events. Do not assume fairground events or office hours apply to the township bins. Call the district at 419-334-7222 for materials not accepted here.
- Township page specifically accepts glass bottles/jars, metal cans including properly emptied nonhazardous aerosol cans, and paper/cardboard/cartons. It says remove glass lids and excludes butter tubs, motor-oil/antifreeze/chemical containers, buckets, toys and foam.
- Local exclusions and lid instructions differ from the district flyer, which lists tubs/cups and reattached lids. Follow the narrower township/bin directions and ask before bringing tubs or mixed plastics.
- No hardback books, reinforced folders, wax-coated papers, napkins or tissue. Remove packaging and flatten cardboard. Old cellphones, shoes and printer cartridges are no longer accepted at these bins.
- The bottom half of the township recycling page still advertises 2019 special collection dates and prices. Those events are obsolete, NOT current scheduled intake or current TV/tire charges.
- Actual bins are at Hydraulic Square on Cemetery Street, not the township office footer at 2220 Tiffin Road. Brush uses the separate scheduled Universal Farms program.
