Waste Facility
Lee Hill Waste Center
10024 Lee Hill Park Rd, Fredericksburg, VA 22408
Lee Hill Waste Center is the local spot in Fredericksburg for dropping off household and cleanup trash. Neighbors use it for yard waste and bulky items when regular pickup won’t do, so expect familiar, practical activity rather than anything fancy.
There’s an entrance booth and a scale as part of the drive-in flow; they charge by weight, so there’s usually a stop on the way out as well. Pull up to the booth lane, get waved through, then follow the lanes past the main drop-off islands where different piles and containers are visible. The site is visibly industrial - concrete pads, roll-off containers and piles of material - not landscaped or polished. Weekends, especially during spring cleanups, tend to get backed up and move slowly.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Sort and secure everything in the truck or trailer before getting in line so unloading is quick once at the appropriate drop-off point.
- Try to go midweek or early in the morning to avoid the weekend backups; fewer trucks make the whole visit shorter.
- Bring gloves and a tarp for loose debris - makes handling branches, dirt or roofing material easier and keeps the vehicle cleaner.
