About This Location

The Urbane Road Facility at 234 Urbane Rd NE in Cleveland, Tennessee is one of three free public drop-off recycling centers operated by Bradley County. Open Tuesday and Thursday afternoons and Saturday mornings, the site accepts a practical range of everyday recyclables — clear, brown, and green glass; newspapers; mixed paper; corrugated paperboard; aluminum drink cans; steel food cans; plastics #1 and #2; and cellphones. Styrofoam and plastic bags are explicitly not accepted here. Two dedicated roll-off containers for cardboard — added through a county grant — give residents extra capacity for that high-volume material. No fees, appointment, or proof of residency are listed on the official Bradley County page, making it a straightforward community convenience for Cleveland-area households.
