It can be used to recycle unwanted components and items.. RUST Airfield Recycler Locations The Airfield monument houses two Recyclers. The first can be found inside Hangar 2, along the left wall behind a group of crates. The second Recycler can be found in the large building opposite the tarmac from the hangars.
