Visit the City of Dublin website to learn more about what items you can and cannot compost.  

Help Keep Dublin’s Parks Clean

Kiwanis Riverway Park - Spring  

Dublin has over 60 parks for you to enjoy. The next time you’re out exploring the 1,500+ acres of parks, take some time to look around and pick up any loose trash you may see. Turn it into an afternoon activity with friends and family by reserving a “Keep Dublin Green” Kit which includes trash and recycle bags, gloves, safety vests, a first aid kit and even a scavenger hunt. To reserve a kit, please complete this interest form

While you're picking up the parks, make sure to check in on your Dublin Park Pass

Recycle Styrofoam Waste  

Want to throw away that old Styrofoam packaging? Why not recycle instead? In coordination with the City of Hillard, the City of Dublin offers a 24/7 drop-off site located in the City Service Center parking lot, 6555 Shier Rings Road.
