A city-run yard waste center in Raleigh for residents needing to drop off yard debris and other household outdoor waste. Located at 900 N New Hope Rd, this is the kind of place neighbors use when pickup won't cut it or for larger loads from a weekend project.

Expect a gated entrance with a small booth where vehicles stop before driving onto the site; larger trucks and trailers are common. There’s a scale and a separate weigh-out area, so vehicles often stop twice if charges apply by weight. The site is mostly open piles and concrete bays framed by earth berms, with clear drive lanes for backing up to drop materials. Weekends and spring cleanup days typically have longer lines and more activity, so the yard can feel busy and dusty.

Before You Go

  • Bring a tarp or straps to keep loose debris from blowing out while driving; materials tend to shift and wind picks up on the open site.
  • Have loads sorted before getting to the booth-separate branches, grass clippings, and anything bulky-to move quickly through the drop-off bays.
  • Use a smaller vehicle or trailer if possible; tight turning and backing are common, so a nimble rig makes maneuvering and emptying easier.
