Recycling Center in Bolivar, Ohio
About This Location
The Stark-Tuscarawas-Wayne Recycling District — formally the Stark, Tuscarawas, Wayne Joint Solid Waste Management District — is a three-county government agency whose office is at 9918 Wilkshire Blvd NE in Bolivar, Ohio. Important: this Bolivar address is the district's administrative office, not a public recycling drop-off site. You cannot bring recyclables here. Instead, the district serves residents of Stark, Tuscarawas, and Wayne Counties through a network of public drop-off bins (accepting paper, cardboard, plastic bottles and jugs, glass bottles and jars, and metal cans) located at sites across the three counties, a curbside collection program, and the appointment-only Canton Recycle Center (742 Schroyer Ave SW, Canton) for household hazardous waste, electronics, and appliances. All programs are for district residents only — businesses, commercial entities, nonprofits, and farms are not eligible. To find a drop-off bin, schedule a Canton appointment, or ask about tire and yard-waste options, visit timetorecycle.org or call 800-678-9839.
