Small, no-frills spot on College Park Road that locals use to drop off household junk and yard stuff. Mostly the neighborhood and nearby counties bring trailers and pickup loads here. It sits near the Greyhound bus station area in Ladson, so look for a low-slung commercial strip rather than a big industrial complex.
Drive in and stay alert for a clearly marked entrance and a booth where someone checks vehicles before letting them through. There’s a short lane to pull up, unload, and then head back out past the exit-it’s not a long, maze-like facility. Expect piles and containers in plain view, with staff directing larger loads to the right spots if needed. Weekends and spring cleanup times are noticeably busier, so lines can form at the entrance.

Before You Go
- Bring gloves and a tarp; dropping off loose trash and broken items happens in the open so things get dusty and windy.
- Arrive with a clear plan for what’s in the truck bed or trailer so unloading goes quickly-strapped items are much easier to handle.
- If towing a trailer, allow extra space for turning in and out; leave room behind larger vehicles so the line can keep moving.
