(919) 856-7400A small Wake County convenience center tucked off Battle Bridge Road, used mostly by Raleigh residents hauling household trash, recyclables and yard debris. Neighbors swing by with pickups, trailers or SUVs-it's the sort of place locals use for quick drop-offs rather than full-scale disposal runs.
Pull in from Battle Bridge Road into a modest entrance area with a small booth and several roll-off containers arranged along the lot. There are separate bins for regular trash, recycling and yard waste, and people usually pull up, unload to the appropriate container, then drive out the same way. Lines form on weekend mornings and during spring cleanups, so expect some waiting if it’s busy. Note that North Carolina has specific rules for electronics and hazardous materials, so those items are handled differently than the usual curbside stuff.
