NEW 2024: Rigid Plastics Recycling Event - Rigid plastics are large, bulky materials that cannot be recycled with your household recycling. They include five-gallon buckets, outdoor furniture, playsets, laundry baskets, storage totes, toys, baby gear, food storage containers, trash cans, and similar materials. All materials must be CLEAN. Materials cannot contain debris, excessive dirt, or any chemical residues. Larger items should be disassembled so that they can be handled appropriately. Registration will be limited for this pilot event and will open May 6th.

There are programs for free and convenient collection of paint, stains, and primers and electronic waste through drop-off locations located throughout the county and open year round. They are still accepting these materials at their dedicated collection events, but there is no need to wait. Click the links above for more information and a list of drop off locations.

They will be accepting VHS tapes, DVDs, and CDs for recycling at their electronic waste collection events this year.

Due to demand, there will be an additional Confidential Paper Shredding event this year.

Please contact the Ontario County recycling department at (585) 396-3090 or via email at recycle@ontariocountyny.gov with any questions.
