Single Stream Recycling and Glass Drop-off Containers
Residents may recycle paper, food and beverage containers, and cardboard at the recycling drop-off trailers around the County. Please be considerate of the facilities hosting recycling trailers and help keep these sites neat. Take plastic bags with you; do not leave any materials outside the bins. All items accepted at the trailers are also accepted at the Landfill and Compost Facility.
Recycling drop-off trailers are for residential recycling and should not be used by businesses.
RECYCLING CONTAINER LOCATIONS & GUIDELINES
Expand allMulti-material recycling facilities do not handle glass containers very well, so most glass ends up in area landfills. For this reason, Prince William County has established a special purple glass-only recycling bin program.
Glass placed in these purple recycling bins is sent to special glass processing facilities, where it is used to make new containers and other products. To participate, empty and rinse all glass containers and place them in purple bins. You do not need to sort by color. Glass may also be placed in the regular trash in Prince William County to avoid contaminating recycling.
The map below includes all Glass Container Locations in the Capital Region.
