McGavock High School Recycling Drop-off

A 24-hour Metro Nashville recycling drop-off at 3150 McGavock Pike, the address Metro Parks gives Two Rivers Park.

McGavock High School Recycling Drop-off hours are 24 hours a day, every day, and the bins are unstaffed. The site sits at 3150 McGavock Pike, the address Metro Parks also gives for Two Rivers Park and Two Rivers Golf. It takes glass, which Nashville curbside carts do not, plus the paper, cardboard, cans and plastic bottles of the curbside cart, loose and sorted into the labeled bins.

Serves: Nashville trash pickup and drop-off rules.

What this center takes and what it does not

The bins take glass bottles and jars, and the material of the curbside cart: paper and mail, cartons, flattened cardboard, food and drink cans, and plastic bottles, jugs and jars. It all goes in clean, loose and sorted into the labeled bins, never bagged. Plastic bags and wrap, foam, and plastic that is not a bottle, jar or jug stay out. Food scraps and BPI-certified compostables are listed for Metro’s four staffed convenience centers, not for the seven recycling drop-offs.
