Recycling in Billings: A Local Guide
Billings has 13 recycling centers and drop-off sites in our Montana directory. Unlike many cities, Billings does not run a municipal curbside recycling-bin program — the Public Works Solid Waste Division provides garbage and a seasonal curbside yard-waste service (roughly April through November) but no citywide recycling cart. Residents who want curbside recycling sign up with private hauler Earth First Aid, and the Billings Regional Landfill accepts items such as cardboard, used oil and antifreeze. For everything else, the drop-off yards and specialists below are how Billings recycles.
The Billings network leans toward scrap metal, auto salvage and electronics. Metal recyclers include Pacific Recycling on 4th Avenue North, Radius Recycling on 6th Avenue North, and Big Sky Steel & Salvage. For electronics, Yellowstone E-Waste Solutions on North 15th Street handles computers and devices, and Dietz Auto & Truck Salvage Inc. takes end-of-life vehicles. Check each listing for accepted materials, fees and hours before you go — scrap yards often pay for aluminum, copper and steel.
If a Billings site doesn't take your material, other Montana cities add options. See recycling centers in Missoula, Bozeman, Great Falls and Helena, or browse the full Montana listings to compare locations and hours across the state.

Does Billings have curbside recycling?
Billings does not have a city-run curbside recycling-bin program. The Public Works Solid Waste Division collects garbage and offers a seasonal curbside yard-waste service, but residents who want recyclables picked up at the curb sign up with a private hauler such as Earth First Aid, typically for a monthly fee. Otherwise, use the drop-off centers in our Billings listings.
Where can I recycle for free in Billings?
The Billings Regional Landfill accepts certain materials such as cardboard, used motor oil and antifreeze, and park drop-off bins collect aluminum cans with proceeds supporting city trees. Many scrap-metal yards in our Billings directory actually pay you for aluminum, copper and steel. Fees for electronics, appliances or tires vary by facility, so confirm before you go.
Where do I recycle electronics in Billings?
Electronics are not part of curbside service. Yellowstone E-Waste Solutions and Green Technology Solutions handle computers, devices and other e-waste in Billings. Some recyclers charge a fee for CRT (tube) TVs and monitors, so call ahead to confirm accepted items and pricing.
Can I get paid for scrap metal in Billings?
Yes. Scrap-metal yards including Pacific Recycling, Radius Recycling and Big Sky Steel & Salvage buy ferrous and non-ferrous metal. Prices for aluminum, copper, brass and steel change daily and vary by yard, and a photo ID is usually required. Call for current rates and accepted materials.
