Helping Californians with all their recycling needs

Our Mission

The California Recycling Directory is dedicated to making recycling easier and more accessible for all Californians. Our mission is to provide a comprehensive, user-friendly resource that connects residents with recycling centers in their area and educates them about proper recycling practices.

By promoting recycling and responsible waste management, we aim to contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable California for current and future generations.

Why Recycling Matters

Recycling is one of the easiest and most effective ways individuals can help protect the environment. When we recycle, we:

Conserve Resources

Recycling reduces the need to extract and process raw materials, conserving natural resources and reducing pollution.

Reduce Landfill Waste

Recycling diverts materials from landfills, extending their lifespan and reducing the need for new disposal sites.

Save Energy

Manufacturing products from recycled materials typically requires less energy than making them from raw materials.

How to Use This Directory

Our directory is designed to be simple and intuitive:

  • Search by City: Find recycling centers in your city or a nearby location.
  • Browse by Material: Learn about different recyclable materials and best practices for recycling.
  • Center Details: View information about each recycling center, including address, hours, accepted materials, and contact information.

We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but hours and accepted materials may change. We recommend contacting centers directly to confirm details before visiting.
