Fort Sill Recycle has an incentive-based program designed to encourage recycling called ‘Cash for Trash’ (CFT). The CFT Sustainability Partnership program provides monetary credits awarded for recyclables turned in to the Recycle Center.
Directorates, Contractors, FRG’s, non-permanent party Active Duty Units, Separate Units, Reserve Units and/or Tenant Organizations also receive credits in the form of MWR recreation dollars, which can only be used in the Category C MWR Programs. These programs are Patriot Club, Twin Oaks Bowling Center, Fort Sill Golf Club, Lake Elmer Thomas (LETRA), and the Outdoor Adventure Center. Credits may not be used for alcohol purchases.

- Proper Disposal of Oils, Antifreeze, and E-Waste
-
Most auto parts stores like Advanced Auto Parts, Auto Zone, O'Reilly's, Jiffy Lube, Tractor Supply, and Walmart Supercenter Tire & Lube take motor oil, 5 gallon or less.
Napa Auto Center will take motor oil, gear oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, and oil filters.
The EQD on post is primarily here to assist and support our military units with environmental compliance and to provide assistance with their disposal of oils and lube cube compliance and maintenance.
The Fort Sill Recycle Program is a DoD QRP (Qualified Recycling Program). Electrical and electronic components are excluded from recycling by QRP's. We cannot accept them. Military e-waste must go to the DLA.
Personal e-waste can be taken to Goodwill or the Salvation Army. Also, check with local computer repair shops to see if they will accept these items.
- FAQs:
-
Where are the bins?
The collection bins are located behind the fence at the Recycle Center on the west end of Naylor Road access from the water tower. The collection station bins are available 24/7, including holidays.Does the Recycle Center accept glass?
No. It is not cost effective to recycle glass in our geographic area. Broken glass is also very dangerous for both visitors and employees.
What does the Recycling Center accept?
The Recycling Center accepts corrugated cardboard, plastic milk jugs, soda bottles and detergent bottles. The Center also accepts steel cans, aluminum cans, office waste paper, old newspapers, shredded paper and magazines.
Do I need to do anything special to my bottles or cans?
All we ask is that you rinse them out and separate them by type.
What do I do with old appliances?
Items that do not contain Freon, such as washers and dryers, must be taken directly to the landfill, either on Post or in Lawton. Do not leave them at the Recycle Center or in a dumpster. Items with Freon will have to have the Freon removed by an authorized person and then disposed of.
Why can’t I place wood, heavy metal or items such as furniture in the dumpsters?
The refuse collection operator checks dumpsters prior to lifting and dumping the bins into the truck. If the bin is full of items like wood or heavy metal, it could possibly damage the equipment. The operator will not pick up the dumpster and an employee must climb in the dumpster and remove the unauthorized refuse.
I am moving. Will it be possible to get some boxes?
Of course. The employees in the plant try to save good packing boxes and packing paper just for that purpose. Check with the employees in Building 3321 during their hours of operation.
Bins available 24/7, including all holidays.

Recycling helps not only our environment but also generates income for the installation and units.
