The Elk County Recycling Department provides assistance to residents by providing collection services for recyclable items in each of our local communities. The regular collection schedule is listed below. Each spring, the department coordinates an "e-waste" collection which provides a way for residents to recycle electronics, paint containers and other items which are often difficult to dispose of.
