PLEASE take special note that just because an item is marked 'recyclable' or has the recycling triangle, it is not necessarily recyclable in Wayne County. They are very selective about the items that they accept. NOTE that it is considered 'littering' if you leave your recyclables at the Center when it is closed.
NON-HOUSEHOLD BULK ITEMS
Non-household items are those that are not produced on a recurring basis, such as appliances and furniture that you want to throw out. By appointment only. For more information, please call Maintenance at 698-4100, ext. 133.
