According to Walton County Environmental Services Director Billy McKee, a Recycle Drop-Off Station located at Moll Drive and U.S. 98 is no longer under county ownership and is permanently closed. No recyclable material, debris, or trash of any kind should be left there.
“We need the public’s cooperation in keeping this area clean and free of illegal dumping,” said McKee. The Moll Drive property was swapped with a private landowner in exchange for a parcel adjacent to Helen McCall Park to provide additional public parking.
The recycling containers that were at the Moll Drive site have been relocated to the Blue Mountain Beach (Public Works Dist. 5) storage and stockpile yard at 970 South County Highway 83 in Santa Rosa Beach. This location is adjacent to the TDC Beach Operations Facility and is just inside the gate on the right.
Please note that only recyclable materials should be brought to the recycle locations and all materials (cardboard, aluminum cans, plastic bottles, and paper) must be put inside the appropriate containers and not left on the ground. This site does not accept any household garbage, food waste, junk, or any construction debris.
