(912) 921-5857Chevis Road Garbage Dump & Recycle Center is the local recycling drop-off for Savannah residents looking to keep stuff out of the landfill. Neighbors bring household recyclables, yard debris and the usual bulky things that don’t fit at curbside pickup. It feels like a working, no-frills place that locals use when clearing out a garage or finishing a yard project.
Pull up to an entrance booth and tell them what’s in the load, then follow signs to the recycling bins and drop-off points. The site is spread out - expect open tipping areas, roll-off containers and covered bins for common materials like cardboard, glass, metal and certain plastics. Vehicles typically drive up to a set of containers or a concrete pad for unloading; larger loads may be routed past a weigh scale. Weekends and spring cleanup days get the longest lines, while midweek tends to be quieter.
