Radiation is the level you need protection against inside the monument's hot zone. Recycler counts are per monument; maps can have more than one of some monuments. See each monument's page for loot, puzzles and maps, and the recycle calculator for what your items give.

This table lists every Rust monument with what it offers a player passing through: how many recyclers it has, whether it's a safe zone, the radiation level you need protection against, and whether it has a train tunnel entrance, a Chinook drop zone or room for the patrol helicopter to crash. Variants of the same monument (water wells, jungle ruins, floating cities) are grouped into one row.

They work the same way, but safe-zone recyclers (Outpost, Bandit Camp, fishing-village style monuments with one) are protected - nobody can shoot you while you recycle. Recyclers out in the open are faster to reach but riskier.

Only where the recycler sits inside the radiation zone. Check the Radiation column: monuments with a level listed need clothing with enough radiation protection, or anti-rad pills or tea.
