(606) 886-7890Floyd County Solid Waste in Prestonsburg is the local spot for tossing household trash, yard debris, and whatever recycling can be brought in. Neighbors from around the county use it when curbside pickup isn't an option or for bigger cleanups, and it sits on S Central Ave so it's easy to find off the main road.
The site looks like a typical county dump with a drive-in entrance and an attendant booth near the road; pull up to the booth to check in before going farther onto the property. There are separate drop-off areas and bins a short drive past the entrance, with piles or containers for different materials spaced around the lot. Loads are usually handled by weight or by category at the exit, so vehicles often stop twice before leaving. Expect the yard to be gravel and a bit dusty after dry weather, with space for trucks and trailers to maneuver.
