Convenience Centers and Recycling
5073 Deep Hole Rd, Chincoteague, VA 23336
Convenience Centers and Recycling on Deep Hole Road is the little recycling center locals on Chincoteague use when cardboard and bottles pile up. Neighbors swing by with household recyclables, yard debris, and the occasional bulky item during seasonal drop-offs.
The lot is modest - think a couple of large containers and a small entrance booth near the driveway. Pull up to the booth and they’ll direct where to put paper, cardboard, glass and mixed containers; yard waste and larger items usually have their own spots. Expect a gravel parking area and separate bins or roll-offs; weekends and spring cleanups can get a line. There are sometimes special collection events for things like electronics or hazardous materials, so keep an eye out for posted notices.

Before You Go
- Break down boxes before bringing them; it saves space and makes unloading quicker.
- Load recyclables so they’re ready to toss - loose in the back of a truck or in bins that can be carried; it speeds things during busier times.
- Plan for a wait on weekend mornings in spring and fall, and have residents sort items by type before pulling up to the booth.
