Whites Creek High School Recycling Drop-off

A 24-hour, unstaffed Metro Nashville drop-off for glass and curbside cart recycling in Whites Creek.

The Whites Creek High School Recycling Drop-off stands at 7277 Old Hickory Boulevard in Whites Creek, and its hours are 24 hours a day, every day. Metro lists it among seven unstaffed recycling drop-off sites, separate from the four staffed convenience centers that keep daytime hours. Metro Parks lists Whites Creek park at 7277 Old Hickory Boulevard as well, the same address as the drop-off.

Serves: Nashville trash pickup and drop-off rules.

What this center takes and what it does not

It takes glass bottles and jars, which do not go in the curbside cart, plus the cart items: paper, mail, cartons, flattened cardboard, food and drink cans, and plastic bottles, jugs and jars. Everything must arrive clean and loose, not in bags, and sorted into the labeled bins. Plastic bags and wrap, foam, and plastic that is not a bottle, jar or jug are refused. Household trash, bulk items and food scraps are not on its list; Metro takes those at its four staffed convenience centers.

About this site

The operator lists the site under Nashville with a Whites Creek address. Metro Nashville Public Schools’ May 2026 building inventory lists Whites Creek High at the same 7277 Old Hickory Boulevard address, and Metro Parks lists the Whites Creek park there too, so the drop-off shares its address with both. Metro’s CY2024 annual progress report to the Davidson County Solid Waste Region Board gives the same address and the same 24-hours-every-day schedule.

Rules at every Nashville Waste Services site

The seven recycling drop-offs are unstaffed and take residents’ household recyclables; the four convenience centers are staffed and have their own hours, residency proof and fees. The full rules for all of them are with the operator, Nashville Department of Waste Services.
