Solid Waste Facility

Oconee County Solid Waste Office Complex

15028 Wells Hwy, Seneca, SC 29678

(864) 888-1440

A county solid waste complex in Seneca where local homeowners and small-scale haulers drop off household trash, recyclables and yard debris. It’s the kind of place locals use when a curbside pickup won’t do or during big cleanups, and it sits off Wells Highway with a clear driveway into the site.

Drive in and pull up to an entrance booth or gate area - there’s usually someone checking vehicles or directing traffic. The site is spread out with piles, bins and concrete pads for different materials, and the recycling bins tend to be off to one side. Expect to queue during weekend mornings and seasonal cleanups; larger trucks and trailers will be moving around so watch for traffic inside the site. A scale is common at county sites, so vehicles sometimes stop twice, once in and once out.

Before You Go

  • Sort materials in the truck or trailer ahead of time so unloading goes faster and it’s clear what goes to recycling, yard waste or regular refuse.
  • Bring gloves and a tarp - surfaces can be dusty or muddy and some drops require lifting heavy or awkward items.
  • Avoid peak times like weekend mornings and spring-cleanup weekends when lines get long; midweek or late afternoons are generally quieter.
