Recycling
There is no free recycling pickup in Mobile.  If you want to recycle, you have two options.  You can take items to the Metro Recycling Center yourself, or you can pay to have someone come pick it up for you.

Free drop-off at the Metro Recycling Center is at 1451 Government Street.  More info can be found here: http://www.cityofmobile.org/recycle/.

Additional drop-box locations for paper recycling only: http://www.cityofmobile.org/mapsnfacts/images/Paper_Drop_Box_Locations.jpg
