Sandy Springs Recycling Center

https://www.keepnorthfultonbeautiful.org/items-we-accept.html Here is what they recycle and don't recycle.

No we don’t

You can bring the bed frames. The nearest place that would take the mattress is the Alpharetta Transfer Station but The Salvation Army or another charitable organization may be interested

They take cardboard as it says on their website. How much quantity that I don't have an answer to it yet.

They are residential based recyclers, scrap metal recycling and credit would be more of an industrial/commercial set up

At this point of no answers,I would say no. Call & ask Mr. Ken

Yes

Check with Batteries Plus or check with the retailer where you purchased them. They often take them back. Or at least they should. If you are a resident of Sandy Springs, we can take them for a fee. See our fee structure at https://keepnorthfultonbeautiful.org/what-we-do-%26-dont-accept It is important to recycle them because they contain mercury and phosphorous. Also, try earth911.com and use their recycle search feature to find the closest place to recycle them.

They do take old appliances but I agree with Matthew and check with then ahead of time to be sure.

Oils can't be recycled at the Sandy Springs Recycling Center.

A couple of weeks ago, I was there and they were taking such items. However, I am not sure if they only do during certain periods. You might call ahead and see if they're currently taking such items or the next available time that they will.

Yes

You can call ahead of time and ask, they mostly focus on sorting out 1 and 2 Plastics, glass, steel cans, aluminum cans, glass, cardboard, scrap metal, and some electronics (some with costs). Never really see chairs.

Only if the paint and stain buckets are cleaned and emptied (no leftover paint).

Nope. They're limiting the number of people, so you may have to wait a bit (though I didn't), but no appointment necessary.

Yes. Please clean and separate bottles into #1 PET (such as soda and water bottles) and #2 (such as milk jugs and detergent bottles.) Here is a list of what we currently accept at the Sandy Springs Recycling Center: https://keepnorthfultonbeautiful.org/items-we-accept

According to the website, they are first come first served outside of 10am to noon. Appointments can still be scheduled if you want to be assured of a space. Make appointments here: https://keepnorthfultonbeautiful.org/recycle-with-us

We take items that can be recycled like glass bottles and cardboard plus many other items. We do sort some trash but you should make a good effort at separating trash from recyclables

They're closed today

No, we do not recycle Tetra Paks, although they are, in theory, recyclable. Here is an article on the subject: https://www.wikihow.com/Recycle-Tetra-Paks Please note that the article directs the reader to the Carton Council website, which indicates that Tetra Paks are recyclable in Sandy Springs via curbside pickup, and has a link to our website. (Confusing!) Regarding curbside recycling, before assuming that your local curbside waste hauler will recycle Tetra Paks, it is best to contact them before adding those materials to your curbside recycling. It might be worth investigating a mail-back option as mentioned by the Carton Council, if you are truly dedicated to recycling these products. This article, which offers a more cynical perspective on the topic, is worth a read: https://mashable.com/article/tetra-pak-recycle/ Thank you for trying to make the right decision! Sometimes things are not clear cut! -Kathy Reed, Executive Director, Keep North Fulton Beautiful

No they don't. The only place I have found is in Atlanta. The city of Atlanta does on the 2nd Saturday of each month from 9-12 pm at 2nd Ponce de Leon Baptist church. Their address is 2715 Peachtree Rd NE, Atlanta, GA 30305

For recycling paint there is https://www.atlantapaintdisposal.com/ Also, as long as the paint cans are dried out (kitty litter will speed the process) you can dispose in household garbage. We use Atlanta Paint Disposal whenever we have wet paint to dispose of. Their website offers pickup days/times and there is a per can/container fee as they are a private business. Of course most of Atlanta’s surrounding cities and parks etc offer a yearly paint drive but you just need to catch them on the right weekend.🤔 Good Luck! Jason Thevis, Integrity Painting Service.com

Paper, yes

If they are in good, usable condition, the donation truck will accept them. However, if they are not in excellent condition, they will either need to be discarded, or recycled here: http://livethrive.org/charm/items-accepted/

Do you charge anything for accepting broken microwave oven? Is there any specific timing or date when you accept it?

We do not take eyeglasses. Thank you Lorenza Myles for your response. I hope that helps. Here is an article regarding donating eyeglasses. https://saving-sight.org/eyeglass-recycling-program

Click on the link on this page that says "find a landfill." Note: Chadwick does not accept mattresses, so you will need to choose another location. https://www.keepnorthfultonbeautiful.org/quick-menu.html Good luck!!

No

No

No

We take food grade glass bottles and jars, no window panes or sheet glass though

For hazardous stuff, try CHaRM (the Center for Hard to Recycle Materials); most stuff CHaRM will accept for free, but they do charge to take some things (like old mattresses or paint, above a certain number of cans per visit). They're only open certain days of the week so check their website at: https://livethrive.org/charm/

Yes there's a special area for batteries

No
