River Road Convenience Center
1775 River Rd, McClellanville, SC 29458
Small, town-style drop-off for household stuff just off River Road in McClellanville. Locals swing by with trash bags, yard debris, and a load from the back of a truck. It’s the kind of place neighbors use when curbside pickup won’t cut it.
Drive in slowly; there’s a single entrance lane and a low concrete island with a small attendant booth near the front. Expect several large roll-off containers and metal bins clustered in the lot, with recyclables usually grouped to one side and yard waste in another. Pull up, sort what’s in the truck bed, and toss items into the appropriate container - brought items are often dropped from the tailgate level. On busy weekends and after storms the line can stretch out onto the road, so give yourself a little extra time.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring a tarp or bungee cords to keep loose debris from blowing out while driving in; wind off the marsh can catch trash easily.
- Backing up to a container makes unloading easier - spotter help from someone on the ground speeds things along when it’s crowded.
- Wear sturdy shoes and gloves; the ground can be uneven and there’s often loose wood, nails, and other sharp bits around the piles.
