Get Directions

City of Bristol Virginia Integrated Solid Waste Management Facility on Shakesville Road is the place locals use for household trash, yard debris, and bulky items. Neighborhoods and small pickups tend to stop here with everything from bagged leaves to old furniture. Expect a working, industrial yard rather than a tidy storefront.

Pull up to an entrance with a booth and a staging area where vehicles line up before unloading; there’s often a scale nearby. Large roll-off containers, concrete pads and piles of brush and rubble dominate the site, and it can get dusty on dry days or muddy after rain. Recycling bins and yard-waste areas are usually separate from the main trash drop, so having things pre-sorted helps. Weekends and spring-cleanup times are the busiest, and lines can back up toward the road.

Before You Go

  • Cover and tie down loose loads with a tarp so debris doesn’t blow out and unloading is cleaner.
  • Sort materials into separate piles in the truck - recyclables, brush, bulky items - before getting out to speed the process.
  • Wear work gloves and sturdy shoes; the ground is uneven and the site can be dusty or muddy depending on the weather.
