Recycling in Somerset: A Local Guide
Somerset, in Somerset County, New Jersey, is home to two certified electronic and universal-waste recycling facilities. Both are specialists — neither accepts standard curbside recyclables like cardboard or glass — but together they cover a wide range of regulated wastes for businesses and, in one case, individual residents.
Terracycle Company (Complete Recycling Solutions) at 12 Worlds Fair Drive is a commercial B2B universal-waste and electronics consolidation facility, acquired by TerraCycle in 2023. It serves businesses, schools, hospitals, utilities, and institutions that need compliant recycling for fluorescent and HID lamps, neon lighting, PCB and non-PCB ballasts, mercury-containing devices, batteries, CRTs, flat-screen electronics, freon-bearing appliances, and smoke detectors. This facility is not a public drop-off for individual residents — service is by scheduled pickup or arranged delivery. Open Monday–Friday 8:00 AM–4:30 PM.
Newtech Recycling Inc is an R2V3, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and NAID-certified electronics recycler now located at 245 Belmont Drive (relocated from 600 Apgar Drive on September 15, 2025). Established in 1995 and licensed by NJDEP, Newtech accepts computers, laptops, CRT and flat-screen TVs and monitors, printers, cell phones, batteries of all chemistries, cables, solar panels, medical equipment, and video game consoles. Somerset County residents and all NJ consumers are welcome to arrange a drop-off by calling (732) 564-3110. Business pickup is also available. Hours are Monday–Friday 7:00 AM–4:00 PM.
For standard household recyclables (paper, cardboard, glass, plastics, metals), Somerset Borough residents should contact the Somerset County Recycling Center at 40 Polhemus Lane in Bridgewater, NJ — (732) 469-3363 — as neither facility in Somerset handles those materials.
