Albany Recycling Center

Our Story

Serving central Minnesota since 2008, Albany Recycling Center has built a reputation as the go-to solution for all your recycling needs. What started as a small operation in Freeport, Minnesota, under the name Freeport Recycling, quickly outgrew its original space. Eager to serve our expanding community, we relocated to Albany in 2010, taking on the name Albany Recycling Center and continuing to grow alongside the communities we serve.

Our family-owned and operated business takes pride in providing personalized service and building relationships with our customers. Whether you're a homeowner with a pile of recyclables or a local business needing to responsibly dispose of waste, Albany Recycling Center is here to help. We're committed to environmentally conscious practices and strive to educate our customers on proper recycling techniques.
