What clients say about MSU Recycling Public Drop-Off in East Lansing (MI)
Love that it's almost 24/7! I don't have to worry about wondering if they're open no matter what time of day or day of week I come by! They have tons of space for all recycling items, plenty of parking, never too busy.
The drop-off containers are well marked for the type of materials each collects. The University keeps them clean with little to no odor. Some of the adjacent containers which accept the same material are now closer together so that you can only load from one side on each.
Other than a few containers & locations of the containers changed. I spent more time trying to help others. 1 had a milk carton he used to recycle there couldn't locate the bin. As he was taking off I waived him down I found the bin. They even had a plastic fold up sign in the walkway for it. The pics weren't lg enough for older eyes cause all 3 of us missed it.
Why don't you update this website. We were in the area today so planned on dropping off our recyclables only to find that it's not open. How will we know when it's really open?
Lots of bins available for many forms of recycling. They have bins for cardboard, metal, glass, plastic, and even a spot for donating books. It can get quite busy pn the weekend.
Very convenient 24hr facility that covers a wide range of recycling from your standard # plastics to film, boxboard, metal, and glass. Only other place I recycle is DART for styrofoam.
