Waste Facility
South County Community Collection Center
13000 US-41, Gibsonton, FL 33534
(813) 671-7611A county-run community collection center on US-41 that serves Gibsonton residents for household and yard dumping. Short drive from town and used by folks clearing out garages, yards, or hauling storm debris after big weather events.
There’s a simple entrance with an attendant booth and a few lanes to pull up and get checked in before heading onto the site. The place is laid out with open tipping areas and piles or containers spaced out across a fairly large lot, so expect to drive around a bit to find the right drop spot. Trucks and trailers are common here, and lines form on weekends and after storms, so traffic can be slow at peak times. Look for signs and arrows once past the booth to guide you to recycling, bulky items, or yard waste areas.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring a photo ID that shows local residency-it’s often required for community centers.
- Secure loads with tarps or straps; loose debris tends to blow off during short drives through the site.
- Aim for weekdays or early mornings to avoid long weekend backups, especially during spring cleanup or after hurricanes.
