The Edmond Recycling Center is open from 10am-2pm every Saturday. It is located just west of Broadway on 1st Street. I enjoy volunteering there monthly and meeting all of the motivated recyclers of all ages that come by. I feel like it is a small step toward doing what I can to help the environment. With the added acceptability of pressboard I find that my family has reduced its weekly trash amount tremendously.
The center accepts:
Paper
Cardboard (corrugated AND pressboard – such as cereal boxes, etc.)
Glass
Plastics (#1 & 2)
Aluminum and Tin
We are always looking for new volunteers!
Contact:
Zainab Khanakah at zhkvaml@sbcglobal.net to volunteer for a 2-hour shift once a month.

About time!! Moved here from Cali and mistakenly thought all the lower 48 were onboard with recycling, not!
Would like to see Tinker move faster on recycling, too, I can’t possibly explain how much paper we waste and it all goes into the trash, no recycling anywhere. = (
