This is a terrific resource for St. Charles city and mid-county residents wanting to recycle household items their local municipalities won't take.
Recycle Works is a convenient option for homeowners near the shopping/restaurant area at Highway 94 and Mid Rivers Mall Drive.
It takes a wide range of household and office items. Check the website: You might be surprised at what you can drop off.
Fluorescent lightbulbs, clothing, cooking oil, microwave ovens, and VHS tapes are less common recyclables the center takes. Two very common materials not accepted: styrofoam and plastic bags.
Recycle Works has minimal charges for small appliances, electronics, and other items. However, I've left those items and fees weren't collected.
The center accepts hazardous waste on scheduled days throughout the year. Check the website for dates and acceptable materials. read more
