The Centre County Recycling and Refuse Authority (CCRRA) recycling mini-grant program is intended to provide reimbursement grant funds for projects that improve recycling education and collection of materials to be processed by CCRRA.

Grant funds are made available based upon the market performance of recycling commodities processed by CCRRA for the prior calendar year.  Funding levels are subject to change each year.

From Memorial Day through Labor Day, our recycling crews will begin curbside collections one hour earlier to help beat the summer heat. Collection will start at 6:00 AM beginning Tuesday, May 26.

Please place your curbside recycling bins out earlier than usual during this time frame to ensure pickup.

This schedule change does not affect collections in State College Borough.

Recycle your campaign yard sign(s) at the Centre County Recycling and Refuse Authority between Wednesday, May 20 and Friday, May 29.       

Drop off your sign(s) between the hours of 8:00am and 4:00pm, Monday through Friday. 

Drive through Gate 3 and follow signs to green collection box.
