Gloucester County Hayes Convenience Center
7599 Guinea Rd, Hayes, VA 23072
Gloucester County Hayes Convenience Center in Gloucester Point is a small community drop-off for residential trash, recyclables and yard debris. Locals use it when a quick run to the county site is needed rather than a full transfer station trip.
Expect a modest lot with several large containers and a short drive-up area where vehicles pull close to unload. There may be a small booth or attended area at times, and separate bins for recyclables and yard waste are common at centers like this. Fees and exactly what is accepted can vary by site and season, so plan as if a charge might apply. Weekends and spring cleanup days tend to be the busiest, so lines can form.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Sort items and load them by type before getting to the site - it saves time and avoids extra trips around the bins.
- Secure loose material with a tarp or straps; loose trash and yard debris can blow out during the drive and is a pain to clean up.
- Bring a form of payment just in case there’s a fee, and pick a weekday or early morning if possible to avoid weekend backups.
