Solid Waste Facility
Wayne County Solid Waste Facility
412 Hog Creek Rd, Waynesboro, TN 38485
(931) 722-9616Small county solid waste site used by residents of Waynesboro and nearby rural areas. Mostly for household trash, yard debris and the usual recycling drop-offs that counties handle. Expect a practical, no-frills place where people swing by with truck beds and trailers.
Drive up a short lane to a cluster of roll-off containers and drop-off bays; there’s usually a single entrance drive and a place to pull up beside the booths or scales if they’re in use. Vehicles line up on weekends and spring cleanup days, so the yard can look busy with pickups and utility trailers. Loads are sorted by staff or by signage, and the site is gravel or paved with a dustier, worked-over feel rather than manicured landscaping.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Separate recyclables and yard waste at home so unloading goes faster; cardboard flattened and loose brush separated saves time.
- Bring straps or a tarp for loose loads - it makes unloading easier and keeps things from blowing over while waiting in line.
- Try a weekday morning if possible; weekends, especially during clean-up season, tend to have the longest lines.
