What
You Can Recycle ... and Where
The
Lancaster County Sold Waste Management Authority (LCSWMA) has assembled
this list of Recycling Drop-Off Centers in Lancaster County as a guideline
to individuals interested in recycling materials. Click on the material
to go to a list of locations where the material is collected. This list
is based on best information available at this time.
LCSWMA
encourages individuals to first contact the Recycling Drop-Off Center
for information about the acceptability of materials being delivered and
any charges that may apply. As markets change, material types handled
