Roanoke County is committed to recycling and we are working towards implementing an efficient and convenient method for citizens to recycle. As an agency, Roanoke County is committed to responsible environmental stewardship, as shown in our System Of Environmental Management goals and objectives.
Roanoke County currently offers six recycling drop-off locations in addition to the Tinker Creek Transfer Station. Roanoke County plans to expand these sites throughout the County to make recycling as convenient as possible for all residents.
Cox Communications
The County of Roanoke in cooperation with Cox Communications now has a recycling location available at the Cox Communications building on Fallowater Lane in southwest Roanoke County. This site currently accepts newspaper, aluminum, plastic and CLEAR glass. Please do not place brown or green glass in the trailer -- it will contaminate the whole load.

This site currently accepts newspaper, aluminum, plastic and CLEAR glass. Please do not place brown or green glass in the trailer -- it will contaminate the whole load.
