NUNDA RECYCLE CENTER IS FOR NUNDA TOWNSHIP RESIDENTS ONLY!
Nunda Township Road District no longer excepts paint for recycling starting immediately. Due to the expiring paint program contract with the IEPA that has expired on 12/31/2023, Nunda Township Road District would have to pay to have the paint properly disposed of and recycled, which is very costly. Nunda Road District will not push the expense on to the residents so therefore we will no longer be excepting paint/stain.
The Paint Stewardship Act.
There will be a means to dispose of household paint in 2025. The Paint Stewardship Act, which is a process for consumers to dispose of household paint in Illinois is a program that was signed into law. Under this program, manufactures will pay a fee to the Illinois EPA to set up paint collection sites, which will allow residents to drop off unused paint to specified locations free of charge in 2025.
Sorry for any inconveniences, Nunda Road District takes great pride in keeping the environment clean and safe for our future. If any information comes in we will update asap.

Oil Recycling:
Nunda Township Road District accepts used motor oil for recycling all year around during regular business hours.
Only waste oil will be accepted, no anti-freeze or other chemicals are allowed.
The waste motor oil is used in a waste oil heater to heat the Road District garages.
This helps cut down on heating costs and puts the waste oil to a good use.
Please contact the Road District office with any question that you may have.
