Recycling diverts materials away from our landfills, and into the recycling stream where they can be re-purposed for use in other manufactured goods. In Oklahoma, that means we can slow the growth of our landfills by reducing the amount of “trash” that goes in them, helping to keep our costs low.

Oklahoma City offers single-stream, curbside recycling for eligible households. For rural customers, we offer convenient drop-off centers to take recyclable items. We do not offer recycling for apartment complexes or businesses.
