MISSOULA, Mont. — The Republic Services public recycling center on West Broadway Street in Missoula is closed.

The building’s parking lot is blocked off by concrete blocks and cones, but even so, several residents came by Thursday expecting to drop off their recyclables.

The closure is indefinite, according to Republic's customer service line.

Officials did not tell us the reason for the closure.
