Broad Ripple Park Recycling Drop-off

A free city recycling drop-off at the Evanston Avenue entrance of Broad Ripple Park, not at the park’s main address.

Broad Ripple Park Recycling Drop-off stands at the Evanston Avenue entrance of the riverside park in Broad Ripple. The City of Indianapolis runs it as a free community site for household recyclables. Its map of drop-off locations gives no hours for the boxes, so look at the city’s drop-off locator before a trip.

Serves: Indianapolis trash pickup and drop-off rules.

About this site

  • The boxes are at the Evanston Avenue entrance. Indy Parks lists the park itself at 1500 Broad Ripple Ave., on the White River, and as open dawn to dusk.
  • City sources number the entrance two ways: the City’s drop-off map gives 6350 Evanston Ave., while other listings use 6380 Evanston Ave. Both describe the same entrance.
  • The City’s map files Broad Ripple Park in its North group, with Sahm Park, the Kroger stores at 79th and Fall Creek and at E. 71st and Binford, and the Pike Township Trustee Office.

Rules at every Indianapolis drop-off

The same rules apply at every City of Indianapolis community drop-off: household recyclables only, put in loose, and nothing left beside the boxes. The accepted list is on the City’s Find a Recycling Drop-Off Location ↗ page, and the Indianapolis city page covers curbside recycling.
