Know Where it Goes Before You Dispose

Looking for a place to take recyclables or where to dispose of items that can’t go in your curbside trash? Use this tool to find the most convenient place to drop-off items for recycling or proper disposal. Be sure to call in advance to verify the information provided and ask about hours of operation, costs, and any other requirements to drop-off.

Remember that reuse is better than disposal. If your items can be reused, please visit the Austin Reuse Directory first. Common reusable items include clothes, furniture, toys, and other household items.

Help us help you! The effectiveness of the drop-off locator tool relies on users to help us keep the information accurate and up-to-date. Please use the “Suggest an Edit” button on location pop-ups to correct information, add missing information, recommend a new location, or even request additional item categories.
