Recycling in Clinton: A Local Guide
Clinton is the county seat of Van Buren County, Arkansas, and the county operates two waste-management facilities at the same address—494 Volunteer Pkwy—that together cover most of the recycling needs of local residents.
The Van Buren County Recycling Center accepts separated recyclables including corrugated cardboard, newsprint, aluminum cans, white goods (large appliances), and scrap metals and steel. It is part of the White River Regional Solid Waste Management District, which covers ten north-central Arkansas counties. Weekday hours are 7 AM–2:45 PM, Monday through Friday, and the first Saturday of each month 8 AM–noon.
At the same campus, the Van Buren County Solid Waste office manages the county's transfer station and runs periodic Recycle Roundup events where residents can bring electronics (accepted free), household hazardous waste (HHW), tires (up to 10 per household, passenger and semi-sized), and foam. Proof of Van Buren County residency or landownership—a county-address ID or property tax bill—is required to participate in those events. Contact (501) 745-5801 or the White River district at (870) 793-5233 for upcoming Recycle Roundup dates.
A third listing, Jones Recycling at 233 Dripping Springs Rd, was a scrap metal dealer and used-auto-parts yard, but multiple directories currently list it as closed. Call (501) 745-4998 to verify current status before making the trip. Residents in nearby communities can also explore options in Searcy or Batesville for broader recycling services.
