Stanly County Convenience Center

Small drop-off spot in Albemarle for residential trash, recycling and yard debris. Locals use it for quick runs rather than big commercial hauls. It's the kind of place neighbors swing by between chores.

The site is a convenience center setup-smaller scale, with separate containers for trash, recyclables and yard waste so be prepared to walk a short distance to the appropriate bin. There may be an entrance booth or attendant at some hours, but some visits are self-serve, so plan accordingly. Pull up slowly and follow the flow of traffic; trailers and pickups are common, and space can be tight when busy. Since North Carolina has rules about electronics and hazardous materials, those items often have different drop-off rules or locations.
