Convenience Center
Botetourt County Citizen Convenience Center
259 Landfill Rd, Troutville, VA 24175
(540) 928-2500A small county convenience center in Troutville for Botetourt residents to drop off household trash and recyclables. Locals use it for quick runs rather than big hauls-think short stops from the neighborhood, not a whole-day trip.
Drive up the access road to a compact lot with several large roll-off style containers and a small entrance booth near the road. Pull up, sort materials at the different containers, and back up where needed to unload - some spots require lining up and reversing into the bins. The site feels like a basic, no-frills drop-off: gravel or paved pads, clear metal containers, and room for a couple of vehicles to wait if it’s busy. Weekends, especially during yard-cleaning season, will have the longest waits.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring materials already separated as much as possible so unloading is quicker and less fumbling in front of others.
- Cover loose loads with a tarp or secure them-windy days will scatter debris and make cleanup slower for everyone.
- If hauling bulky or heavy items, use a vehicle with easy access to the bed or ramp; parking and backing up into containers is common.
