Project Name: Gypsum Recycling Center Relocation
Date Started: Summer 2026
Project location/address: Eagle County Road & Bridge Facility - 3289 Cooley Mesa Road
Project Status: Crews have started work and completed the earthwork and grading for the new site, and are starting to work on forming the concrete pad. Electrical work is underway to provide power for the cardboard compactor and lighting for the site. Over the next few weeks, work concrete work will continue and there will be some minor trail relocation work as well.

Project Description: The Town of Gypsum will be relocating our existing recycling center facility from Ridley's Market (210 Crestwood Dr) to the Eagle County Road & Bridge Facility (3289 Cooley Mesa Rd). The new recycling center will have the same options as before including a location for residents to recycle cardboard, paper, acceptable comingled items. This project will take the recycling center off of private property and place it in a more central location in Town on land owned by Eagle County. Minor safety adjustments to the Eagle Valley Trail will also be made. Eagle County has committed to fund half of the project with the Town.
