 The
Frisco Recycling Center is located at the County Commons,
off Highway 9 just south of Frisco, across from the Animal
Shelter. The Breckenridge Recycling Center is located
on County Rd 450, at the corner of 7-Eleven on the north
side of town, ¼ mile on the left. Both locations
are open 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. The Dillon
recycling trailer can be found in the Dillon Town Hall parking
lot most days. You can find Dillon Town Hall from U.S.
Highway 6, turn on to Lake Dillon Drive, ¼ mile on
left (cattycorner to the Dillon Post Office). For more directions,
please contact the Conservation Center at 668-5703.
All recyclables recycled at the drop-off centers end up
at the Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) located at the
Summit County Resource Allocation Park (SCRAP, aka landfill)
in Keystone, where they are sorted, bailed, and shipped
all over the United States to be made into new products.
Summit County's MRF is pictured to the right.

Sundays. There are intermittent closures due to weather,
therefore we recommend contacting them before making the
