Recycling in Nixa: A Local Guide
Nixa, a city of about 24,000 in Christian County, Missouri, is served by two distinct recycling facilities that together cover a broad range of materials — from everyday household recyclables to ferrous and non-ferrous scrap metal.
The City of Nixa Recycling Center at 1093 Eaglecrest Street is a municipally operated drop-off open to Nixa city-limit residents at no additional charge — the cost is rolled into the $1.50-per-month recycling line on your Nixa Utilities bill. It accepts cardboard, glass containers, aluminum cans, metal cans, newspapers, magazines, phone books, plastic bottles, and large appliances (washers, dryers, stoves, water heaters). A separate yard-waste area accepts brush, grass clippings, leaves, and tree limbs under six feet, which are converted into compost provided free to residents while supplies last. Neighbors in the 65714 ZIP code who live outside city limits may purchase a non-resident annual permit ($120) at City Hall for recycling-only access.
Triple P Recycling at 441 W Tracker Road is a cash-paying scrap-metal yard that buys ferrous metals (steel, iron, cast iron) and non-ferrous metals (copper, aluminum, brass) as well as aluminum cans and scrap wire. Loads are weighed on a drive-on truck scale and sellers are paid on the spot at current commodity rates. The yard is open Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM; closed weekends. This is a metal buyer, not a free municipal drop-off — call (417) 725-4333 for current prices before hauling a load.
