Effingham County Dry Waste & Recycling Center

Effingham County Dry Waste & Recycling Center in Guyton is the county recycling spot most neighbors use for household recyclables and small loads that shouldn’t go to the landfill. It’s a plain, practical place at 2750 Courthouse Rd where people drop off common items like cardboard, mixed recyclables and yard debris, and where occasional special collection programs may run.

This type of county recycling center typically has an obvious entrance off Courthouse Road with a place to pull up, a small attendant booth, and separate containers or bays for different materials. Expect a working, no-frills yard - concrete pads, roll-off bins, and piles sorted by material - rather than landscaped grounds. Vehicles often line up on weekends and during spring cleanup, so there can be short waits when it’s busy. There’s usually weight-based processing at similar facilities, so people often stop at a scale on the way in or out.
