Dumpster Depot on Kershaw Street is the local dump people from Aiken bring household trash, yard debris and the sort of stuff left over after a weekend project. It’s the kind of place homeowners and landlords use when a pickup won’t cut it. The site sits at 681 Kershaw St NE, easy to find off the main road.
There’s a driveway approach and an entrance area with a small booth where vehicles slow down before pulling into the drop area. The site is mostly open lot with large containers and spaces to back in or pull up beside a pile; trucks and trailers are common here. Lines form on Saturdays and during spring cleanup, so plan for a short wait if arriving on a busy weekend. It’s a hands-on spot - expect to secure and unload items yourself and have something to help break down bulky pieces.

- If hauling big pieces, have tools handy to break items into smaller, more manageable loads.
- Try to arrive early on Saturday or pick a weekday if possible - weekends get the longest lines, especially in spring.
