Newaygo County Recycling

Since June, 2017, the Newaygo County Board of Public Works has overseen the recycling sites across the county. The Board of Public Works is housed within the Drain Office. Follow us on facebook through Newaygo County Recycling or through our Drain Office facebook page. Household recycling is a way to reuse items so they do not end up in a landfill. In order to sell the recycled materials, they must be clean and only the items listed must be put in the provided containers.

  • Garbage bags: No garbage bags, dump recyclables out into container.
  • Newspaper: No strings or in plastic bags.
  • Paper: No wrapping paper, tissue paper, or wax paper.
  • Plastics: Only containers with number 1-7 on the bottom. Must be rinsed, clean, and no lids. Labels are okay.
