Recycling/Sanitation/Green Waste Center
We have a drop-off site for refuse, recycling and green waste collection at no additional charge for the Town of Brooklyn residents ONLY.
NOTE: Businesses are required by law to have their own dumpsters and are not allowed to use the Town Recycling/Sanitation/Green Waste Center (R/S/W).
The R/S/W Center is located at N6285 Berlin Road. Hours are listed above.
You need to have a Town of Brooklyn sticker for your vehicle. Please see one of the attendants at the Center if you do not have one or if you have changed vehicles.
Items collected at the Center that must be recycled include: IMPORTANT: If you use the recycling center, PLEASE make sure you have rinsed out any containers that you bring in. ANY containers that have food in them, CANNOT BE RECYCLED and have to be put in with the garbage.
- Containers (aluminum, glass, plastic and steel).
- Paper/fiber products (newspapers, corrugated cardboard, magazines. Items do not have to be separated- they are co-mingled.
We do not collect the following items as they are not allowed in the landfill. These have to be recycled.

- Major appliances that contain refrigerants and any electronics as they contain heavy metals. The place you purchase these items should take them or may charge a small fee to recycle them.
