The City of St. Louis has shifted from alley recycling to dropoff recycling due to ineffectiveness and high costs. Residents with alley dumpsters are encouraged to use one of the City’s 43 Residential Recycling Drop-Off Locations. These locations are collected separately from trash routes and are taken directly to Republic Services Material Recovery Facility for processing.
Drop-off sites are for residential use only and accept single stream recyclables. There is no need to sort or separate your recyclables. Simply place your loose, clean and dry recyclables in any of the provided dumpsters at dedicated drop-off locations.
Blue and brown alley recycling dumpsters are now collected together as landfill trash.
