Recycling in Durant: A Local Guide
Durant, the Bryan County seat in southeastern Oklahoma, has two distinct recycling facilities serving different needs. One is a free tribally operated drop-off center for everyday recyclables; the other is a commercial scrap-metal buying yard. Together they cover most of what residents and contractors in the area need to divert from the landfill.
Choctaw Recycling of Oklahoma at 3108 Enterprise Blvd is a full-service, free drop-off center run by the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma's Environmental Protection Service. Open Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM, it accepts aluminum cans, cardboard, paper, plastic bags and film, plastics #1/#2/#5, printer ink cartridges, shredded paper, steel/tin cans, and Styrofoam — all clean, dry, and empty. Tribal membership is not required; the center serves the general public across Bryan County and is the hub of a regional network spanning more than 120 roll-off collection sites across 10½ counties in southeastern Oklahoma. Glass, electronics (except at periodic HHW events), and tires are not accepted as routine drop-offs.
Durant Iron & Metal Inc at 11 W Locust St is a commercial scrap-metal buyer and used-pipe dealer serving Bryan County. The yard purchases ferrous and non-ferrous scrap metals by weight and deals in new and used pipe — this is a pay-you operation, not a free public recycling program. Hours could not be verified from a reliable primary source; call (580) 924-0595 before visiting to confirm current days and times.
