Recycling

Crushing aluminum cans and flattening plastic bottles when recycling can do more harm than good in some cases.

At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Temple suspended recycling operations to protect the employees who sort through items.

We hope your family had an amazing Christmas season and now the time has come to take the tree down but if you went out and got a REAL Christmas tree, don't just dump it, recycle it!

It's time to take down the tree, and you can put it to good use instead of letting it get chucked into a landfill. The City of Killeen will recycle it for you.

Business owners and citizens with sensitive documents that need shredding are invited to a safe, secure bulk shredding event in Temple this Saturday.

If you have pesticides, batteries, used tires and oil, and old electronics you're not sure how to dispose of, bring them to Temple this weekend.

The City of Killeen is ending its curbside recycling program on Friday, September 30.
