EcoDrop Rome

In order to provide as many user-friendly, environmentally sound disposal options for residents of Oneida and Herkimer Counties, the Solid Waste Authority has two facilities: EcoDrop Utica, and EcoDrop Rome. These facilities were designed to work jointly with a wide range of public and private solid waste collection systems by providing convenient disposal options for special or one-time waste, while also providing an option for residents who may not be able to subscribe to a specific collection system.

Acceptable Material: Recyclables, Household Garbage, Trash/Bulk Items, Appliances, Construction & Demolition Debris (C&D), Tires, Yard/Green Waste, Automobile & Rechargeable Batteries, Used Motor Oil, Antifreeze, Propane Cylinders (under 100 lbs.), Electronics/Computer Equipment (Monitors, CPUs, Printers, Toner Cartridges), and Household Hazardous Waste (Utica Facility Only).

Some local businesses will accept paint products year round during their regular hours of operation. Click here for additional information on these drop-off sites and to learn more about the PaintCare program.
