What To Do With Return to A-Z Guide
Sink, not reusable
Ceramic, porcelain, plastic, and other nonmetal sinks that are broken and in poor, unusable condition are not recyclable but are accepted for safe disposal at the Drop-Off Station and Recovery Yard as general waste. Metal sinks are accepted as scrap metal for recycling at the Drop-Off Station and Recovery Yard.
Choose Zero Waste!
Try to repair, refurbish, or repurpose sinks first and find another use for them in your home.
