Items that share the same official city or county source are grouped here. Alias items open this program section; core guides stay on their own page.
Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.
Official source:
Athens mattresss go to the Center for Hard to Recycle Materials at 1005 College Avenue or the ACC Landfill at 5700 Lexington Road in Winterville. CHaRM charges a published $3 per trip facility fee for Athens-Clarke County residents ($8 outside the county) plus per-item fees on mattresses and similar materials; payment is check or credit card only, no cash.
Household hazardous waste — used oil, paint, propane, batteries, and chemicals.
Official source:
Take motor oil to CHaRM at 1005 College Avenue, the permanent Athens-Clarke County hard-to-recycle and household hazardous waste site. The published facility fee is $3 per trip for county residents and $8 for others; commercial loads require an appointment with the HHW supervisor at 706-296-7832.
TVs, computers, and electronics. Usually banned from trash and the blue bin.
Official source:
Athens electronics including e waste mixed go to CHaRM at 1005 College Avenue. The published $3 per-trip resident facility fee applies plus per-item electronics fees; no appointment is needed. Wipe your data before drop-off.
Construction debris, concrete, and remodel waste — transfer station or roll-off.
Official source:
Construction and demolition debris goes to the ACC Landfill at 5700 Lexington Road in Winterville with published tipping fees, not to CHaRM. Route paint and chemicals to CHaRM instead.
Yard waste, food scraps, and cooking oil where the city has a separate stream.
Official source:
Athens-Clarke yard waste is collected curbside on your service day, and larger volumes can go to the ACC Landfill on Lexington Road.
Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.
Official source:
Athens recycling carts do not want expanded polystyrene (EPS). White block foam, packing peanuts, and food trays are different streams. Grocery film/bag bins are not a foam drop-off. Athens-Clarke County — Landfill is the official Athens program we verified — if that page only mentions plastic bags or film, treat block foam and food trays as bagged garbage unless it names a foam densifier. Clean peanuts may be reused at a shipper; starch peanuts are not EPS.
