Champaign
The City of Champaign has a free 24-hour recycling drop-off site open seven days a week. The site is located at 1701 Hagan Drive, Champaign, just east of Home Depot (off of Bloomington Road). The site is a two-sort program, which means that materials are separated into fibrous (paper) items and containers. They also accept glass at this drop-off site.

For those who live in single to four-plex residences, curbside recycling is available. Those who live in these types of residences should contact their local waste hauler for details. Curbside service is currently not available to complexes more than four units, Greek houses, or private housing.

Urbana
The City of Urbana has set up an extensive community recycling program, called U-Cycle, that services citizens as well as student residents living in houses and apartments. The program includes curbside collection of recyclables for single family homes, and at least one recycling location at each multifamily complex (apartment.) The program is a "two-stream" system, meaning recyclables are separated into two distinct categories: fibrous (paper) materials and containers. These services are automatically available to all residents of Urbana, and are funded by fees paid by property owners (whether or not apartment tenants incur those fees as well is solely dependent on the complex owner's policy).  Recycling is an individual responsibility, but the City of Urbana makes it very easy!
