Wonder what materials are accepted at Sedona Recycles? Here is a breakdown of the plastic materials we take.

#1 & #2 in the shape of bottles, jugs, and jars. This you can think about as any plastic container that has a bottle neck.

We CANNOT accept berry or salad containers. Or any other shape of plastic that doesn't have a bottle neck.

If you're ever unsure about a material best practice is when in doubt throw it out! 🗑️

We can't wait to meet you in the lobby! See you soon. ♻️

Hi Village of Oak Creek Recyclers!

Many of you have brought to our attention that the drop off sites the County had for you in the Village have closed.

There’s been some confusion that residents believed that we had been doing the collections from those sites. Sedona Recycles has not been involved with Yavapai County’s Village recycling sites for several years and we do not have information about the contractor or service changes related to those locations.

For questions, updates, or concerns, we recommend reaching out directly to Yavapai County at this time.

Did you know: musical greeting cards are not recyclable 🎵⚠️

It’s the thought that counts, but if that thought comes with a catchy tune it can't doesn't belong in the bins at Sedona Recycles.

Musical greeting cards have "hidden" electronics. Inside the cards are smalls electronic chips and a tiny lithium button batteries. When these cards are crushed in our recycling trucks or sorting machinery, those batteries can spark and start dangerous fires. 🚛🔥

Because they are a mix of paper and electronics, they cannot be processed with regular cardboard and mail.

Consider a beautiful handwritten note on recycled paper or a digital "e-card" instead next time you want to get a musical card! 💌✨

Help us keep our facility and workers safe by keeping the musical cards out of the recycling bin!

11/14/2025

Always remember: Bottle, Jugs, and Tubs. If you can remove the lid and throw it away that will help us when we are baling the materials together.

These are examples of what we accept when it comes to plastics. Any other shape is considered contamination and shapes we can't recycle.

11/12/2025

Did you notice our ✨NEW✨ signs for our plastic and metal collection bins!? We wanted to help make recycling easy and clear the air on what types of plastic SHAPES we can accept inside this particular bin.

Remember:
Bottle
Jugs
and Tubs! Anything you can twist a lid off of and has a bottle neck.

We can't accept:
Plastic bags
Plastic clamshells
Glass bottles (please put those in the glass bin), or any kind of flimsy plastic.

Help us by putting the correct shapes into the bins, please! It makes it easier for our line workers to sort material efficiently, helps reduce the hazards (broken glass on the line and our machines running). We can't do this without YOU!
