Naperville Hazardous Waste Disposal

Naperville provides its residents with a free Recycling Drop-Off Center through its contract with Resource Management.

Materials may be brought to the center on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Access to the drop-off center is from the one-way drive off of Fort Hill Drive. No box trucks or vehicles larger than a pick-up truck or van will be permitted to drop off materials.
