New Recycling Drop-Off Location on Aiken Road

We are pleased to announce that a new recycling drop-off location has been added at 13312 Aiken Road!

Securing the location, preparing the site, and funding the project was no small task. Special thanks to the Louisville Metro Waste Management District, Councilmen Kramer, Winkler, Benson, and Piagentini, Smith Creek, and the Department of Public Works Streets & Roads and Solid Waste divisions.
The Department of Public Works and the Waste Management District maintain 14 unstaffed recycling locations, 3 staffed recycling locations, and a household hazardous waste drop-off location. All locations can be seen on this map, https://louisvilleky.gov/government/public-works/map-recycling-locations-louisville. Most unstaffed locations now use the new style of dumpster to prevent losing recycling due to illegal dumping, which has shown success at other locations.
Important Reminders:

• Recycle paper, cartons, plastic containers, glass bottles and jars, and metal containers.
• Flatten all cardboard and crush containers when possible. This conserves space for more recycling.
• Never purposely place items on the ground and please pick up any items that accidentally fall on the ground. Help us keep the site clean!
• Take note of the openings for inserting recyclables - bring recycling in a container that can be "poured" into that slot.
