Burlington County Resource Recovery Complex

Burlington County Resource Recovery Complex is the county waste facility out by Columbus that locals use for dropping off household trash and bulk items. Neighbors, landscapers, and small haulers all end up here when curbside pickup isn’t enough.

The entrance has a toll/entry booth and lanes for cars and trucks; expect to pull up and speak with an attendant before proceeding. There’s a large paved yard with bays and traffic flowing in set paths, plus the kind of industrial noise and occasional odors that come with a big disposal site. Vehicles are typically weighed, so there’s a scale to cross and a second stop before leaving is common. Weekends and spring cleanup times get busy, so lines and tight maneuvering are normal.
