WWRA Drop Off Bins
WWRA drop off bins are open to member municipality residents only (no commercial recycling) throughout our service area. Please see our drop off map for all public locations.
Please note that WWRA bins that are not listed on this map are part of our commercial program and are paid for by the business. These are not open to the public unless that business chooses for them to be.
Although all WWRA locations are open 24/7 for commingled recycling, only certain locations offer glass recycling. The WWRA's drop off bins are provided at the discretion of the property's owners, who determine the quantity of bins and whether or not glass is accepted. For guaranteed glass recycling, please visit our Werkner road or Dexter Township Hall locations.
Commercial Pick Up
If you are a business looking for recycling services, we have a range of plans available to businesses of all sizes and needs. WWRA residential drop off bins are NOT open to businesses, even if the business is owned or operated by a member municipality resident.
