Whitestown, Indiana has two recycling facilities, though both are oriented primarily toward commercial and industrial customers rather than public household drop-off. 334 Recycling & Transfer at 6251 S Indianapolis Rd — part of Ray's Trash Service — accepts construction and demolition debris, municipal solid waste, scrap metals, recyclables (glass, cans, cardboard, plastics #1–7), and auto tires, serving both residential customers and contractors. Pratt Recycling at 3890 Perry Blvd is a commercial fiber material recovery facility (MRF) run by Pratt Industries, one of the largest 100%-recycled-paper packaging companies in North America; it primarily handles baled and loose corrugated cardboard, fiber, plastics, and metals from business accounts.
