Saluda County Recycling Center 5

Small county recycling center in Saluda used by residents wanting to keep recyclables out of the landfill. It’s the kind of place locals stop by with a car or small trailer to drop off routine household recyclables. The site sits on Bethany Schoolhouse Road and serves Saluda County households.

Drive up to a clearly visible entrance where there is typically a staffed booth and a scale nearby for larger loads. Pull into one of the lanes and follow signs to the recycling bins, which are usually grouped by material just past the booth; expect separate containers for paper/cardboard, plastics, metal cans and glass. The yard is open and concrete or gravel surfaces are common, with big collection containers and roll-off dumpsters to use for larger items. Weekends and spring cleanup times tend to be the busiest, so lines can form and movement around the site can be slow.
