Solid Waste Disposal Plant on Birch Rd in Abbeville is where locals haul bigger loads that won’t fit at the curb. Neighbors, landscapers and anyone with a trailer stop here for general household and yard debris and occasional recycling.
There’s a gated entrance with a small booth and a drive-in flow for trucks and trailers; lines form at busy times. A scale sits a short way in, so be prepared to stop and wait for it to be clear. Recycling bins and large roll-off containers are usually off to one side while piles of brush and mixed debris sit farther back. The lot is mostly gravel, so expect dust and give yourself room to maneuver when pulling a trailer.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loose loads with tarps and straps-wind and passing trucks can scatter debris quickly.
- Sort materials at home (trash, recyclables, brush) to speed up unloading and avoid extra trips around the site.
- Aim for a weekday morning or midweek visit if possible; weekends and spring clean-up times get the longest lines.
