Convenience Center
Saluda County Convenience Center
589 J Paul Rd, Johnston, SC 29832
(803) 275-0744A small county-run convenience center out on J Paul Road in Johnston, used by local households to drop off everyday trash, recyclables and yard debris. Neighbors swing by with pickup loads or a trunk full after yard work. It feels like a local drop-off spot rather than a full-service landfill.
Drive up to a modest driveway entrance where there’s usually a small booth and a couple of drive-up lanes for dropping things off. Separate roll-off bins or containers sit in a row-trash, recycling and yard waste tend to be staged separately. Pull close to the appropriate container and unload; larger vehicles may need to back in or angle up to the bin. The site is compact, so busy weekends and spring cleanup can create short lines of vehicles.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring gloves and a tarp or straps to secure loose loads; it makes unloading quicker and keeps things tidy.
- Sort recyclables and yard debris at home so dropping off is fast-separate piles cut the time spent at each bin.
- Expect other cars when weather is nice or after storms; plan for a short wait and keep children and pets inside the vehicle while unloading.
