Small county collection site used by Wetumpka residents for everyday household drop-offs. Located off Red Eagle Drive, it’s the kind of place locals swing by with yard debris, old furniture, or a trailer load after a cleanout. People from nearby neighborhoods and rural parts of Elmore County typically use it for routine disposal needs.
A single-lane entrance with an attendant booth is common at these county-run centers, so expect to slow down and follow directions from the booth for where to pull up. There are usually rows of large containers and open pits for different types of materials, and the site feels more industrial than a retail parking lot. Vehicles often need to back up or angle into specific bays, so handy to have someone guide the driver if hauling a trailer. Weekends and seasonal cleanups can create lines, so traffic congestion is the main thing to watch for.
