Overdale Yard Waste Processing Facility

Overdale Yard Waste Processing Facility on Old Milwaukee Lane is the local spot for dropping off yard debris from Winston‑Salem and nearby neighborhoods. Neighbors with trailers or pickup loads use it when curbside pickup won’t do or during big cleanups. It feels like a working yard - not a retail place - so come prepared to handle your load.

A small entrance booth sits near the driveway and there’s usually a short line on busy days; plan for a brief stop before getting directed where to pull up. The site has large open bays and tall piles of brush and mulch; trucks and loaders move material around so watch where heavy equipment is operating. Recycling or drop bins are often grouped to the right after the entrance, and there’s a clear spot for dropping branches versus loose leaves. Expect uneven surfaces - gravel and mud in wet weather - and a smell of fresh-cut wood or compost on warmer days.
