Nash County Solid Waste Site at 3057 Duke Rd in the Castalia/Nashville area is the local drop-off for household and yard debris and common recyclables. Neighbors, contractors with small loads, and folks doing spring cleanouts all use this place. It feels like a county operation rather than a private business-functional and practical.
There’s an entrance booth and a weigh scale near the front, so vehicles slow down when coming in and often pause on the way out. The lot is open with a few concrete pads and covered areas for different drop-offs; expect to walk a short distance from your truck to the containers. Recycling bins and a dedicated yard-waste area are visible from the drive, usually off to one side, while household trash areas are separate. Weekends, especially in spring, can get busy and vehicle queues form along the drive lane.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring gloves and a tarp-items are often loose and some toss-down spots are gravel or dirt.
- Have materials sorted by type before pulling up so unloading goes quicker and vehicles don’t block traffic.
- Leave large furniture on a trailer or truck bed rather than trying to carry bulky items by hand; ramps and raised pads make lifting awkward.
