Rock-n-Recycle Open House

A family favorite returns for the fifth year as the Solid Waste Bureau opens its doors at the Trades Center in Shirlington.

Explore the world of recycling, trash-to-energy and other key environmental services. See the big work machines (The Rock Crusher! The Tub Grinder!) up close, sit in the driver's seat and meet the experts who keep Arlington clean and sustainable.

Dozens of hands-on learning stations, take-home art, environmentally friendly giveaways, music, Kona shaved ice (for purchase) and more. Rain or shine.
