illusionescape Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 My wife and I just started recycling plastics, glass, cardboard, and paper around the house. We searched the City of Houston's website and it said that there was a recycling center around the intersection of Ennis St. and I-45. But when I went there this past weekend to check it out, all I saw was a rundown office complex. Does anyone know of a recycling center in East End? Or perhaps the closest to the East End, if there are none inside the area? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

relocating Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 You can drop all your recyclables on Saturdays at Discovery Green (downtown Houston, between Minute Maid, Hilton, and convention center) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelguy_73 Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 We go to the Westpark/West University one. It isn't too far away, though it would be terrific to have one closer! Recycling rates in the east end generally bite, and I would love to see more emphasis placed on it in our area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well..technically..the one on Central at Galveston Road (just outside the loop) is probably closer to you by 3 or 4 miles.
