Recycling in Smyrna: A Local Guide
Smyrna is a fast-growing suburb in Rutherford County, Tennessee, roughly 25 miles southeast of Nashville. The town is served by two listed recycling facilities that cover very different needs: a full-service public convenience center operated in partnership with Rutherford County Solid Waste and Goodwill, and a commercial industrial scrap-recovery business.
The Smyrna Recycling Donation Express Center on Weakley Lane (also known as G Street) is the primary option for Rutherford County residents. It combines a county convenience center with a Goodwill drive-thru donation lane in one stop. Residents can drop off single-stream recyclables (paper, cardboard, plastics #1–#2, aluminum, tin, glass), bulk scrap metal, select electronics, cooking oil, bagged household trash, and up to three bulk items per visit — all free of charge. Mattresses and box springs are accepted for a $25-per-item recycling fee (payable to Spring Back Recycling). The Goodwill lane accepts gently used clothing, furniture, appliances, books, and household goods, and provides a tax receipt. The center is open Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday 9:30 AM–5:00 PM and Saturday–Sunday 7:30 AM–3:00 PM; it is closed Monday and Thursday. Use is restricted to Rutherford County residents.
Rerun of Tennessee LLC at 783 14th Avenue is an industrial scrap-recovery business listed in commercial and waste-management directories. It operates a truck entrance and shipping dock consistent with business-to-business accounts, not a public walk-up drop-off. If you have industrial scrap to move, call (615) 418-3461 first to confirm what is accepted and whether your account qualifies; the general public's access has not been verified.
For household recycling, the Smyrna Recycling Donation Express Center is the confirmed public option. Smyrna residents with curbside service through the city may also check with the Town of Smyrna Public Works for weekly pickup schedules.
