NYC Dept. of Sanitation Household Special Waste Drop on Muldoon Ave is a municipal drop-off for Staten Island residents with household items that don't fit regular curbside pickup. Locals use it when clearing out garages or dealing with oddball stuff from the house. Expect a functional, industrial-feeling site rather than anything fancy.
Drive up to a gated entrance with an attendant booth and a couple of lanes for cars and small trucks; lines form at peak times. The lot is paved and open, with containers and transfer areas spread across the yard and municipal vehicles moving through. Be prepared to unload items from the vehicle yourself, and note that many similar sites have a scale or checkout before leaving, so a short stop on the way out is common. The overall look is concrete, chain-link fencing, and basic signage directing traffic through the site.
