WINTER HOURS for BIG LAKE

Big Lake Transfer Site Recycling will only be open on SATURDAYS for the months of January and February. 

Want to recycle at your next event but
don't have bins? BORROW OURS!

Thanks to a generous grant from the Palmer Community Foundation, we were able to purchase 8 large event bins for community use. There is no charge for the rental, but you have to do the work! Simply pick up the bins, place a liner inside, collect the recyclables, and return the recycling and the clean bins back to us -  It's that easy! Call ahead to reserve your bins and let us know how many you need for your event - we'll hook you up! Show the community and your guests that you care.

WHERE DOES IT ALL GO?

WHAT HAPPENS TO IT AFTER WE RECYCLE IT?

If we accept it, it gets a new life. After collection it is baled and sent to manufacturers to make new products. Click below to see what your RECYCLING BECOMES.
