Waste Facility
Cherokee County Subtitle D MSW Facility
Cherokee County Subtitle D MSW Facility, 10160 US 19, Marble, 28905, North Carolina
Cherokee County Subtitle D MSW Facility on US 19 in Marble is where people from town and surrounding roads haul household trash and cleanout loads. It’s the county’s municipal disposal site, so expect pickups, trailers, and truckloads coming and going.
Drive in off US 19 and you’ll see an entrance booth and a scale - that’s common for this kind of site, so be prepared to stop. Beyond the booth there’s a large open drop-off area where loads are emptied; weather makes a big difference, so the ground can be dusty in dry spells or muddy after rain. Recycling or reuse spots, when available, tend to sit to the side and aren’t mixed in with the main drop zone. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, get backed up, so plan accordingly.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Cover and tie down loads before leaving home - loose debris can blow out on the highway or when unloading.
- Load with unloading in mind: keep heavy items accessible and separate loose material so the dump goes faster.
- Try for weekday mornings to avoid the weekend lines, and wear sturdy shoes or boots since surfaces can be rough or slick.
