General Information
Since 1971, the City of Naperville has provided its residents with a Recycling Drop-off Center. This service is free and provided through the city's contract with Resource Management.
Residents who do not receive curbside collection may take materials to the city’s drop-off recycling center at 180 Fort Hill Dr., Naperville, IL. Access the recycling center from the east driveway on Jefferson Ave.
In April 2009, the Recycling Drop-off Center moved to its new permanent location at the Public Works Service Center at the corner of Fort Hill Drive and Jefferson Ave.
