(843) 832-0070Small county recycling spot in St. George that locals drop by with pickup loads and household recycling. Quiet on weekday mornings and busy on weekends or after neighborhood cleanups, it's the place people use to keep cans, paper and other recyclables out of the landfill.
The site looks like a working yard more than a showroom - bins and containers lined up, and a booth or gate at the entrance like most county centers. Pull up, sort materials at the edge of your vehicle, then wheel or carry items to the correct container; paper, cardboard, metals, plastics and glass are commonly accepted at centers like this, and there are often special collection programs for things like electronics or bulky items at certain times. Expect trucks and trailers maneuvering; give them space and watch for posted signs showing where each material goes. During hurricane season or after storms the place gets noticeably busier with cleanup debris in the line.
