City recycling drop-off closed tomorrow

The City of Pensacola’s new monitored recycling drop-off site located at 2759 N. Palafox St. will be closed Saturday, Dec. 2, due to inclement weather.

The site will reopen Saturday, Dec. 9, weather permitting.

The monitored recycling drop-off site will be open every Saturday, barring inclement weather and holiday weekends. City staff will be onsite to deter illegal dumping of nonrecyclable materials, provide sorting assistance, and educate residents on proper recycling.

The site features multiple containers for residents to properly dispose of recyclables, including cardboard, #1 PET plastics, #2 plastics, steel cans and aluminum cans. To ensure a speedy and productive process, all users are encouraged to presort recyclables prior to arriving at the drop-off site.
