Great place to bring recyclables, both the usual ones and things like styrofoam which curbside doesn’t accept. I bring my tires here too, since you can’t trust all the tire shops to properly recycle them. The cost here is the same or less than what some shops charge. Also, a shout out to Billy for being friendly and helpful!!
Great place. Efficient. It feels good to get rid of electronic waste, florescent bulbs, etc., that I have been holding onto for so long... and disposed of responsibly.
Natalie is the bomb. Just moved to the area and had a bunch of packing supplies that I brought in. Didn't know they were closed on Thursdays! She went ahead and opened up and helped me unload. I really appreciate the help!
Westmoreland Cleanways and Recycling Center is a clean and convenient spot to recycle your unwanted materials. The friendly staff is always helpful. Keep in mind that there's a fee for certain items like tires. Be sure to check their hours before heading over! ♻️
10/10 recommend! I had a SUV full to the brim with boxes and they helped unload it all! It was my first time so I called ahead of time and they were very nice and gave me detailed directions on where to go. It was super fast and easy! They do prefer broken down boxes to be in a big box for easier unloading so I will be doing it that way next time.
Great place to recycle glass now that our municipality doesn't take it. Also takes styrofoam, plastic bag, and recently started taking plastic #1-9 which is wondeful since most municipalities only take 1 and 2. Very clearly marked signs so you know where to go to drop off whatever it is you have.
This is an awesome resource to have in Westmoreland County. They take a large variety of items for recycling instead of dumping them in a landfill. The people that work there are always very helpful and friendly.
Mike and the crew at Westmoreland Cleanways are great to work with! Lots of people talk about keeping our planet clean but these folks are getting it done. Kudos to you all!
Extremely helpful and efficient! Went with a car full of cardboard. They unloaded it and everything. What a great service, only wish they recycled plastics.
I had 2 air conditioners and a dehumidifier from our old home. They took them for $20 each and it was a very quick and convenient option to get rid of something we can no longer use. Everyone I encountered was helpful and kind. Will return if I need to dispose of anything else down the road.
Fast easy recycling center for many different items. I have used it twice now for TVs. The first time I went I was so surprised it was free, I thought there was a recycling fee on tvs but there is not unless it has a broken screen. They do accept donations. They actually take the items out of your car for you so all you have to do is actually drive through!
This place is great! I had a rugged old school TV that, if it didn't have handles on the side, would have been hectic taking down my 18 steps of my apartment. I got it squeezed in the front of my car, took it out to Westmoreland Cleanways and Recycling, and I didn't even have to take it out. The great people there took it out for me in their garage. How do you like THAT for service! ;)
I’m so grateful this place exists. They helped me recycle a trunk load of cardboard. I will be going back to have them accept used tractor oil as well.
I am so glad that I found this place!
I have been coming here for about a year now, after seeing an article in our local newspaper about Cleanways beginning to accept styrofoam for recycling...which is nice, because there aren't too many places that will accept the stuff. Well, that, and I had to wait until I retired so that I could have the time to drop off my recyclables here...it's about a 60 mile round-trip for me. But I consider it well worth the time.
Of course, I make the trip down to Greensburg about once a month for more than just the styrofoam. I always have aluminum cans, other assorted scrap metal, shredded paper and cardboard when I visit. Everything on site is laid out in such an organized manner that you basically zip right through the unloading.
The workers there are unfailingly efficient, friendly and knowledgeable, which I'm sure rubs off from the people they work for. When I first started recycling there, I had a couple occasions to send an e-mail with some questions. Both times, I had my answers the next day...in a return e-mail from the executive director herself.
I can't say enough good things about either their operation, or the people who work here. They are truly an asset to the county, and I'm glad I discovered them.
I cannot believe that I have lived in Westmoreland county for 6 years and this was my first trip there. Recycling is difficult at Best in so many cities, but I am so proud and delighted to see how Westmoreland Cleanways is handling business! Like a well-oiled machine!
Great facility to help everyone recycle everything. AC units to aluminum cans to glass bottles and cardboard. They also can take electronics, tires, and fluorescent bulbs. Some more hazardous items have a small fee.
The trip was simple and easy. There were people there to help me unload. They took everything I brought, so extra points for that! Just be sure that you go when they're open. I recommend calling first.
These guys are awesome. I load up my car and utility trailer with TVs and electronic items to be recycled and the Westmoreland Cleanways team unload all iteams without question.
All I had to do was pull up and I got rid of two old tube TVs for free. They even did all the unloading, the guy who helped me was very friendly and helpful. Please don’t dump your old TVs or electronics, stop by here instead! Their website has a list of everything they take and the cost for certain items.
