This is the Gloucester County Solid Waste Complex on Monroeville Road in Swedesboro, the local spot where residents bring household trash, yard debris and recyclables. It’s a working county facility at 503 Monroeville Road with the kind of no-frills layout people expect. Regular homeowners and small haulers both turn up here.
Drive up to the entrance booth and be prepared to stop at a scale area before you leave - expect a short pause getting checked in and weighed. The recycling bins tend to sit just to the right past the booth, with other drop-off lanes spread across a large paved yard. Big trucks move through the site, so keep an eye out for backing vehicles and follow the flow of traffic. Lines build on weekends, especially during spring cleanup, so wait times can grow quickly.
