City of Santa Cruz Resource Recovery Facility Summer Tours

Summer Public Tours Are Back!

Public Tours of the Resource Recovery Facility will be offered every Friday at 10AM and 1PM from June 14th through August 23rd, 2024. Come join us!

Tours are limited to 20 people. Children must be at least 8 years old. Youth ages 8 to 17 must be accompanied by an adult. Carpooling is encouraged as parking is limited.

Visitors will see what happens to the 30 to 50 tons of material that Santa Cruzians place into their blue recycle bins every single day. They will learn why it is important to “recycle right” and avoid “wish-cycling.” Visitors will also see a mountain of scrap metal, learn about the facility’s Household Hazardous Waste Program and see the Food Scrap Pre-Processor Machine.

Pre-registration is required. No Drop In
