About This Location

Midwest Fiber Recycling has served Central Illinois as a commercial single-stream processor since 1990, and its Decatur facility at 1781 Hubbard Ave offers a free, self-serve public drop-off alongside its industrial operation. Residents can leave cardboard, paper, accepted plastics, and cans in bins just left of the entrance gate, with aluminum cans taken inside the building. Glass is not accepted at this drop-off, and because drop-off procedures can change at a commercial facility, it is worth calling 217-424-9460 before your first visit.
