Mechanicsville Convenience Center
7427 Verdi Ln, Mechanicsville, VA 23116
(804) 746-0316Mechanicsville Convenience Center on Verdi Lane is the small, neighborhood drop-off for household trash, recyclables, and yard debris. Locals swing by for quick cleanups or to empty a truckload after weekend projects. Expect it to feel compact-built for short stops, not long hauls.
The site is the typical convenience-center layout: a paved pull-up area with a few large containers and room to maneuver a car or small truck. There may be an attendant booth or a scale at some centers, so be ready to pause while sorting or paying. Bring items already separated into trash, recyclables, and yard waste to make the unload quicker. Maneuvering a trailer can be tight, so plan for limited turning room and a short walk from where you park to the containers.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Sort materials at home into bags or piles so unloading is fast and straightforward.
- Try to visit on a weekday morning if possible-weekends, especially during spring cleanup, tend to back up.
- If hauling bulky items or a trailer, bring someone to help spot and lift, and secure loose items with a tarp before arriving.
