Waste Facility
Washington County Collection Center
Kaolin Road S #3 (SL) P. O. Box 271, Sandersville, GA 31082
(478) 552-7180Washington County Collection Center on Kaolin Road S in Sandersville is the local drop-off for residents with extra household or yard cleanup to get rid of. People from town and nearby areas use it when stuff won't fit in the regular curbside cans.
Drive in off Kaolin Road and follow the entrance lane; many county collection centers have a small booth or office near the gate, so be prepared to stop at the front before heading to the drop zones. Loads are usually unloaded into large containers or pile spots, and the site is spread out enough that smaller items may require a short walk. Weekend mornings and spring cleanup season tend to be busier, so expect a line at peak times.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring gloves and sturdy shoes - moving bags and loose brush can be awkward and dirty.
- Secure and tarp trailers or truck beds; light debris and leaves can blow out during the drive to and from the site.
- Unload heavy items first and have someone available to help with bulky pieces to speed up the visit.
