Recycling

While the City of Paris does not provide curbside recycling services, our residents have enjoyed recycling efforts since January 4, 2016.  Residents may take their recyclables to the Compost Site located at 705 Field St from Wednesday - Friday 9:00am to 12:00pm and 1:30pm to 4:30pm and on Saturday from 10:00am to 2:00pm. Because of manpower availability, hours of operation are subject to change.  Please call 903-784-9266 or 903-783-1643 to confirm.  A current water bill and valid driver’s license must match to drop off recyclables. 

Residents are asked to break down boxes. Residents do not need to sort recyclables - sorting is done at the recycling station.
