Aiken County Recycling Drop Off #3

1491 Reynolds Pond Rd, Aiken, SC 29801

Aiken County Recycling Drop Off #3 is a county recycling center in Aiken that local households use to keep recyclables out of the landfill. Neighbors bring curbside overflow, boxed-up cardboard from moves, and those awkward items that don't go in the curb bin. It feels like the kind of place folks stop by on the way home from the hardware store.

Drive up to a modest entrance area with a small booth and pull-through lanes for cars and small trailers. Recycling containers and roll-offs sit in a row; paper and cardboard are usually separate from bottles, cans, and mixed containers. There’s often a scale or weigh station near the entrance, so be prepared to stop twice if needed. Weekends and spring cleanup days get busy, so expect a short wait at peak times.

Before You Go

  • Pre-sort cardboard, paper, plastics, glass, and metal at home so unloading is quick - it keeps the line moving and makes the job easier for everyone.
  • Bring bungee cords or a tarp for loose items in a truck or trailer; windy days will scatter lighter stuff if not secured.
  • Plan around busy times: early mornings on weekdays are usually quieter than weekend afternoons, and storm season can change pickup patterns or cause extra traffic.
