It’s the kind of place people swing by for cleanup runs or after yard work when a quick drop-off is more convenient than a long haul.
Drive up Hunters Branch Road and you'll see a guarded entrance booth where vehicles queue up to check in; there’s usually a scale nearby so expect to stop twice-once in and once leaving. The yard is mostly open pavement with large compactors or roll-off areas set back from the entrance; trucks pull forward to tip or unload into a pit and then compactors take over. Traffic can back up at busy times, with pickup trucks and trailers jockeying for position, so plan for short delays. Keep in mind vehicles will need to maneuver around larger commercial trucks sharing the same space.
