Recycling Drop-off Sites
To complement our curbside recycling program, the Solid Waste Management Department operates many recycling drop-off sites throughout the Albuquerque Metropolitan area. You may use the recycling bins at any of the locations listed below to deposit glass (any color), paper, corrugated cardboard, all plastic bottles, tin, and aluminum cans. To recycle materials not currently included in Albuquerque's recycling program, go to the New Mexico Recycling Coalition's recycling directory.
