New Proposed Regional
Recycling Drop-Off Station

The project team, including the City of Ann Arbor, Recycle Ann Arbor and Washtenaw County, has been working on planning for a new proposed Drop Off Station to be located at the former Hilton Property off Platt Road just south of the old landfill. Entrance to the new proposed DOS site is approximately at this location.

This project website will provide you with background information, a summary of stakeholder feedback collected, and an overview of the final conceptual design for the new site. You are invited to attend one or both of two public engagement meetings for a presentation of this project and to ask questions and provide comment on the final design. The Presentation and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) prepared for Public Meeting can be found below. The meetings will be held:  

Thursday, April 13, 2023 at 6:30pm, location: Ann Arbor Senior Center in Burns Park, 1320 Baldwin Avenue, Ann Arbor, MI 48104 (directions) 

Wednesday, April 19, 2023 at 6:30pm, location: Pittsfield Township Hall, 6201 West Michigan Avenue, Ann Arbor, MI 48108 (directions) 

The new proposed comprehensive regional DOS will replace the current DOS built on the City’s closed landfill that is not suitable for renovation and long-term operations.  The new DOS will continue to service the residents and businesses of Washtenaw County and will manage unwanted materials by diverting, reusing and recycling to a higher and best use where practicable to support the growth and establishment of a local circular economy. 

If you have any questions or issues with reviewing these PDFs or general comments on the project, please contact the Project Manager, Nicole Chardoul, nchardoul@recycle.com or 734-417-4387. 

 We greatly appreciate your continued support and feedback on the new proposed comprehensive regional Drop-off Station.
