Recycling in Montgomery: A Local Guide
Montgomery has 12 recycling centers in this directory, dominated by scrap-metal yards and auto salvage, plus a phone trade-in kiosk. Unlike many Alabama cities, Montgomery does not currently offer a citywide curbside or drop-off recycling program: the City of Montgomery Sanitation Department collects garbage, yard waste and bulk trash, but the automated no-sort recycling program run through a RePower South facility was shut down in October 2022 when the city ended that contract. That makes the private centers below the main option for residents who want to recycle. For alternatives elsewhere in the state, browse the full Alabama recycling directory.
Most Montgomery centers focus on scrap metal. Montgomery Steel & Metal Co, SA Recycling, Mid South Metals and Capital Recycling are scrap buyers that typically take ferrous and non-ferrous metals. For end-of-life vehicles, Pull-A-Part is a self-service auto salvage yard, and the Car's Cash For Junk Clunkers listing handles junk cars. Check each center's page to confirm accepted items, pricing and ID requirements.
If a Montgomery center does not fit, nearby Alabama cities in this directory may help. Birmingham has the state's largest listing with 18 centers, while Opelika and Tuscaloosa are within reach. You can also check Mobile and Huntsville, or return to the statewide Alabama hub to search by town.
