All Divisions of Recycle Ann Arbor will be closed on Friday, July 4th. Friday's Curbside Pick-Up recycling will instead take place the following day on Saturday, July 5.
Recycle Ann Arbor’s A-Z Recycling Guide is a comprehensive resource to help Ann Arbor and Washtenaw County Area residents properly reuse, recycle, compost, or (as a last option) safely dispose of everyday items and materials. This simple tool will help you responsibly sort your stuff and offer tips to help you reach your zero-waste goals!
Looking for something that isn’t listed in this guide? If your item doesn’t pop up on our list, odds are it can’t be recycled and should be thrown in the trash. Recycle Ann Arbor only accepts items that can be authentically recycled. When in doubt, throw it out, as items that can't be recycled will contaminate the recycling stream. Choose zero waste and aim to reduce and reuse the items that can’t be recycled.

Electronics, not working or older
E-Waste electronics that are not working are accepted for recycling at the Drop-Off Station. E-waste often contains hazardous materials but is also full of valuable materials like silver, copper, gold, and other resources. By recycling electronics instead of throwing them in a landfill, we can reduce the amount of mining and manufacturing required to produce more electronics in the future.Accepted at:
