Cottageville Convenience Center

Cottageville Convenience Center is the small drop-off spot off Rehoboth Road that locals use for household trash, recyclables and yard debris. Neighbors swing by with pickup loads or a few bags rather than hauling things to a larger landfill. It’s the kind of place that gets busy on weekends and before storms, especially along the coast where hurricane prep sends everyone out to clear yards.

Drive up the short paved lane and you’ll see a compact lot with several large roll-off style containers and a small booth near the entrance. Pull up, sort items into the appropriate bins (trash, recyclables, yard waste) and use the paved aprons to back up close to the container edges if needed. The site feels basic and practical - not a big complex - so expect people to be moving around with tarps, tied loads and hand trucks. Lines form during spring cleanup and storm-prep times, so plan on waiting if it’s a weekend or right before a storm.
